Metal supplier recommendation (Sheffield) Avus Metals

[RainbowsParticipant @rainbows]

Usual declaration, just a satisfied customer and so on, no affiliation with the place.

If anyone here is in Sheffield and stuck for a material supplier I couldn't recommend Avus Metals And Plastics enough.

Avus

Free local delivery (I always buy while in Sheffield then ferry back to garage in Macclesfield). No minimum order. Their steel prices are quite good compared to what I have had in the past. Often 1/2 to 2/3 of the price given by themetalstore.co.uk which I was using previously.

Just felt like sharing after being stuck without a good supplier for a while.

Hi

Do they have a trade counter?

[Michael GilliganParticipant @michaelgilligan61133]

Thanks for that, Rainbows

Good to see they also stock Plastics

Thank you Rainbows.

I have duly indexed them.

(I'm going to have to start subdividing my Engineering bookmarks folder!)

There are just a couple snags with the website: no catalogue of stock and no prices.

Before I make inquiries with a supplier, I generally like to see a detailed list of what they sell and at what cost.

Perhaps Rainbows has access to a list of this kind and can share it with us.

Well it's been a year since Rainbows last posted on the forum and a lot longer than that since he started this thread so may be a while before he replies.
