Steel price????

had our purchasing guy call Alro for some 2x6" .1875 wall for rockers, and they gave me a price of $248 for 24'. I figured alot less.

i bought some 2x2 1/4 wall for like $100 a couple years ago. :sure:

If you are in Reed City, it might be worth a shot to call Central Iron and Steel in Grand Rapids. That is where I buy all my steel, plus they have an inventory of used/salvage stock that can sometimes be useful and cheap.

Central Iron and Steel - (616) 363-4013

You should just go to WF, then you can borrow the trailer I'm buying down there and haul your tires back in it.

I'm actually looking for someone in MI to pull the trailer closer to home for me, so if you change your plans and decide to attend let me know.

There's no way I can go. I WOULD LOVE TO! but I have training for work that week. Which I probably won't even make it to because my son is due march 27th and the doc told to expect him a couple weeks early. So I got lots of excuses lol

That steel price isn't too far off from being what everyone pays. The price of steel has been going up fast over the last few months and will continue to do so because of demand from other countries. About two years ago stainless steel hit record lows as far as the price per ton goes, you might have purchased steel when it was a bit lower around that time.
