steel for sale   
Morning All

I have been lurking here for a while and am not entirely sure if it is 
permissable to post an advert - but here goes

I have just aquired around 400kg+ of bright steel - flat and round, 
smallish sizes inch by quarter, inch and a quarter by a quarter, three 
quarter square, three quarter dia, inch dia etc.  It is in lengths up to 
6 feet long.  There is also a couple of pieces of six inch by quarter 
bright and six inch by eigth black.

The steel is currently located in the CB4 post code area just north of 
Cambridge.

It is available as a single lot - I can email a coupole of photos to 
anyone who is seriously interested in it.

The asking price is £100.  I reckon there is about £700 worth based on 
Parker Steels prices.

I aquired the steel when I went to clear a load of scrap from a workshop 
  only to find that it was all good stock and not really scrap at all! 
Its too good to send to the scrap yard where it will make about 50 quid 
maybe 60 quid if the price keeps going up, but if it doesn't sell - 
thats where it will be going :o(  At £100 it is cheap enough to make 
gates out of!


Please remove THE OBVIOUS to reply



regards

Sorry. Picked it up this morning.

 
You _can_ get 400kg of steel and a couple of sacks of cement in a Rover 100
and still drive it, having taken most of the seats out first...

Sorry for not posting sooner but I have had issues with newsgroup access 
and NTL/Virgin at home and had to wait until I was in the office to post :o(

Thanks to everyone who mailed and was interested in the steel I had for 
rehoming.

Mark came to collect the steel yesterday morning and I can indeed 
confirm that it all went into a Rover Metro!



regards


Dudley
