    where to buy sheet metal in SA?

    Does anyone know where you can buy sheet metal from in SA? I am looking at making a shelf off of the rear door to make a bench. Thanks for your help.

    Try Ellul fabrications at shed 10, 211 Aldinga beach rd. He possibly would cut to size

    Any engineering work shop will sell you the desired size.
    You want 316 stainless steel in 2mm for your shelf..

    Hey buddy, if you where further north I could put you onto someone but down south I can't help you, use to work for Brice metals and reckon they would look after you. Let me know if you get what you want

    Thanks guys I will have a look into those places and see. I am still ready undecided if to use the sheet metal or some wood. It will be a folding shelf of the large rear door.

    4wdnut,

    You will be surprised how cheap that some of the sheet metal shops can knock up a shelf for you.

    Try a couple of places near you, and see how you go.
