Bought a Mig Welder!! Where is a good place to buy some sheet metal to practice on in Orange County, CA? I went to home depot and they only had 22 gauge and 16 gauge. I am looking for 18 and 20 gauge. Something similar to our cars.

This is where I get my stuff, kind of like candy store inside. Guys at the air gas in Santa Ana are really cool for the beginner, and might have some suggestions. Good luck! |

Shorr Metal and Benner Metal in Placentia/Fullerton. Lots of choices and good pricing. They also have short cuts from other peoples purchases for sale at about scrap price. Smitty |
