A quick question regarding the cost of metal tube

(1/2) > >>

Hi people,

I have recently acquired a pair of x lites, and Im considering custom building a metal light bar for my disco, What Im wondering is how much would a length of 2"( or 51mm for you metric people) mild steel pipe cost?

I have no idea about metal cost, so would like a rough idea before i head down the metal dealers,


oh, the length is the width of a disco, so 5, maybe 6 feet,

I appreciate any input you clever people may have,

Lewis.J.P_1987:
A length of scaffold pole that long would cost £8ish

dxmedia:
£18 for 6.5M lenghts up here/.

boss:
2 things

dont know about where you are but its difficult for me in norfolk to get 2"(51) i had to settle with 48mm which was actually quite a nice size. but i payed £37 for 8.5m....or it might have been 7.5m length dont remember but that was £37 when all the prices of steel were stupedly high!

and you cant just buy a "length" of scaffold tube as ALL scaff tubes are bought at 21ft and then cut down. and its more than £8, its also a pig to bend and weld!

it was either boss or landymadjay who said they were making rocksliders, perhaps for some £££ they could make you a light bar?
