[sdiy] Panel source recommendations?

[James Patchell]

I have not used them, but I have used http://www.metalexpress.net/

I did have onlinemetals book marked, however.  I would suspect that either 
company would be ok.  When you order, you probably want the 5052-h-32 
alloy...or at least, that is what I purchased, seems to work out pretty good.

Getting the metal cut to size is real handy.  I have a foot shear here, but 
cutting anything more than 0.062 inches thick is a problem, so even I tend 
to try and get things precut as best I can.
