1/8" sheet metal
Anyone have a piece of 1/8” sheet metal laying around? Looking for something 6-8" wide by 20-24" long.
Altitude has almost nothing in their drop yard. Haven't made it to K&K yet. Figured I'd ask here.

I’ll take a look in my pile this weekend and let ya know.
ACE and Home Depot sometimes has that small of a piece sometimes. Might check.

Re: 1/8" sheet metal
I looked at Home Depot and Lowes. They don't carry anything that thick in their sheet metal. I'll look at Ace. There's not one super close. Maybe tractor supply?

Re: 1/8" sheet metal
I could probably use 14ga instead of 1/8. Trying to build a hanger for some tools so I don't think 16ga will be strong enough.

Re: 1/8" sheet metal
Just checked. I’ve got 3/16 so twice as thick as you were looking for.

Re: 1/8" sheet metal
Mostly finished. I needed a project and saw something similar online and thought, that would be fun to make. Needs some paint and to be mounted to the wall. I think I'll have a couple of open spots once I put all the clamps in it. It holds 16 and I'll come close to filling it. First pic is it laid out before I bent it up. Finished pics with it mounted in the vice to show it off. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
