Aluminium sheets costs
Folks, How are the costs of aluminium sheets looking around the country?
Aluminium warehouse want £74+VAT for a 2500*1250*1.5 sheet!!
I'm in Oxfordshire, Does anyone know of a cheaper source around here? I'm after 4 sheets.
Regards Dan.
The less I worked, the more i liked it.

Dunno if either has a branch convenient for you though.

I paid £38 for a sheet last year from aalco in liverpool, try speaking to a local engineering firm who have accounts there and will pay a quarter of
the front desk price. see what they'll do you for cash.
