Is this true, steel trebles in price in 6 mths?

I've just seen this post - time to go home.....

Haven't told HAndy yet, but last week when at our steel suppliers i asked the question about Corus closing down and they said that this will have no effect on their prices. But they did say that steel prices have been rapidly increasing over the last 3 months, for some products more than others. SO we are to expect some increases over the coming weeks but we are still getting good quality steel, 2mm thick box section (we both prefer it over 16swg) at trade prices.

But yes as you all say Handy puts an awful lot of work into the chassis packs and produces a great product for new builders and saves on expense on cutting discs and cutting machine purchases. He may have to increase prices shortly but this will only be to reflect cost of materials and not his effort and man hours that go into putting the packs together.

Keep it up.....AndyH
