  • Metal prices ?

    So much for buying metal as you build. I bought .32 4x 12 sheet alclad in 2010 for $115. today $ 235. from TW Metal. Yes, I should have bought it all at once.

    $165 + shipping from ACS...they will roll for shipping through UPS. Aircraft Spruce is where I have gotten my metal so far and have been treated well. Wicks rubbed me the wrong way when I first started the project so they don't get much business. I will have to get my spar material from them unless ACS has gotten with the program and started stocking the capstrip material.

      I too had a bad experience with Wicks, they will not get one dime more from me unless I have no other choice. I will pay more if I have to just to not use them. ACS has treated me very well, as matter of fact If I order I get it delivered the next day, every time, no matter what I order.
