Funny you should talk about scrap.
I went down to the aluminum center today to buy some extrusions and they also sell off cuts from 6mm plate up to 100-150mm thick. I asked the guy if it was still $8 a kilo which I thought was expensive, he said no it's now $10 plus gst which is 10% so $11 a kilo, what do you guys pay?.
I bought 2 kilo but will have to start looking elsewhere as that is way to expensive for scrap even if it is handy and has most sizes in stock all the time. The off cuts are new and from the Sydney shop where there cutting stuff for big clients.
