Model Forum / General / Models / March 2010L111 Aluminium Plate
I have a source of Extruded L111 Aluminium plate. (Aircraft quality) Size 30mm thick x 325mm wide x 1000mm long. Price £60 each if anyone is interested. Based on Density they are about 24Kg each so carriage would not be cheap. Colleague having one as a tool plate for his CNC mill. I am in Cheltenham. Anyone interested?

[quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Richard At an SG of 2.7 I make the weight over 26kg unless you really mean they're 305mm wide however if anyone is interested P4D will deliver that for only £6.99 + vat so no big deal. http://www.p4d.co.uk/ They used to only cover up to 25kg on the basic deal but now go to 30kg which is very handy. Over 30 kg the price leaps to £24. I've used them a few times for cylinder head deliveries and had no problems. First time I used them I emailed the request, starting packing the cylinder head and the bloody van was here before I'd taped it up. I live in the middle of nowhere too so how they managed that I have no idea. They also do bulk deals on more than one parcel at a time plus they give you a discount as soon as you've used them just once. 5% I think it was for any further deliveries. Highly recommended anyway so make a note if you think it might be of use to anyone.  SignatureDave Baker >>I have a source of Extruded L111 Aluminium plate.

Richard >B Hell they will make expensive shelves! This is SOLID extrusion not >box! or am I not quite getting it? I need 4 off 500x200mm. It would have needed minimum 10-12mm plate before Rotabroaching and milling the holes, I was working towards making 15mm ribbed castings due to the cost of plate. The 30mm is completely OTT, but the price is right. "resawing" the stock to 14mm thick, then milling it clean might just be possible, but might produce something too banana shaped to clean up. I can experiment with the 120m off-cut from the first plate. If that succeeds, I've gained a tool plate, or stock for a project :-) For Dave (or anyone else between Northampton, Rugby, Derby, Nottingham, ish). Store-forward transport is no problem. regards Mark Rand RTFM > I have a source of Extruded L111 Aluminium plate. (Aircraft quality) > Size 30mm thick x 325mm wide x 1000mm long.

As an idea of value I rang ASC at Lincoln today, they don't do 30mm plate, nearest is 1 1/4" [ 32mm ish ] Price per piece is £138 , add carriage and VAT and that comes to £166 Five or more drops it to £118.
