The steel has arrived!
At last, and for those who thought I would never get this far, my chassis steel arrived today. They have sent 1 1/2 inch round tube rather than 3/4
(does this mean I only need half the length!!) so I will have to phone and get them to change that.
Only other problem is that my garage is about 6 foot too short to get the full lengths in so something will have to get sorted to fit it and me in
properly!
Should have all the square and round section I need now, total cost £73 which I reckon is pretty good.
Now, where did I put that book.........

Well done Andy.
A start at last!
Have you made room in your garage then?
Give us a shout if you need a hand.

The steel came from Ossett Steels in Kinsley near Pontefract. Free delivery as I live close by.
Twas cheap because he "forgot" to charge me VAT. I don't have a receipt though so I guess I may have to create my own to satisfy the
DVLA when eventually I come to register it.
Thanks for the offer Pat - it has gone in, sort of. Currently at an angle from the rafters at one end to just inside the door on the floor at the
other. I will probably have to cut it a bit as I am not too happy about the curvature it may develop if left in the current position. I may make the
first cuts one from each piece of tube so the can all rest on the floor or hang from the rafters with plenty of support.
