I usually price it out at 4 or 5 places, but more often than not, Riverfront Steel gives me the best deal. Their # is 1800-555-4444

When was the last time you bought some for $2.00 a foot?

Its DOM. Look at my posts in buggy builds, under "a-arm buggy".

With thoes prices I should stock up. I just paid $3.20 a foot for 1 1/2" .095 DOM This was from a supplier that we buy TONS of steel from every year. The bad part is the mill where the stuff is made an hour from here.
