Shaggy i feel your pain, this material is way too hard to get hold of in australia.
One of you American hoons could do quite well selling this stuff on ebay.... hint hint....
Af conversions are getting very popular over here!!!

its a friggen joke how hard this is to get over here.
i have tried just about every alloy supplier on the eastern side of aus.
everyone said they can get it then ring back and tell me that its only available in Sharpe edge .

how short can it be cut? do you work with fed ex or a courier like that? I've got any amount of it available to ship, and will cut to any length from 20ft sections
it reads
BON L CANADA 1"X.120" SQ TB RD C RUSSEL 6061t6511 11103010
all round edge is going to be as t6511
