Brass supplies

[dangray21]

Hey folks,

Just started working with brass, and am struggleing to find suppliers of 10mm and up solid square section.  I use this and machine it down to what I need but cant find it anywhere local. Model shops hold most other types of section but solid isnt somthing they can get hold of for some reason (?)

Where would you suggest I try. only needing lengths of 300mm idealy

MB Trac is a bit of a whizz... .. or that saint of 1/16 brass modelling.  ...  Kolpen may be able to help you.

still struggleing to find this brass... smiths can supply 3ft for 25 quid but seeing as i only need 6 inchs seems a lot for waste.... ah well...keep trying...

thanks peeps,

sourcing square isnt a problem, im told the size is though. 10mm isnt too standered or sought after so not many places hold it in stock.  but i'll message some more places an see what I can find.

I get mine here: http://cjwsteam.com/page20.htm

He only shows round up to 3/4" but may be worth a try too.
