Then you sleep too much, it's making you weak.
Go to cold rolled...bottom of the page.
I'll try to update nogs when i do this, it will be a flatrate job like you wouldnt belive.

Is that what you ordered, i was getting the impression that it was a rectangular tube and not a sheet/plate. let me know if i'm wrong when you get it

That's the flat bar stock. It is definately solid material.

If it were hollow inside, you'd be getting square PIPE stock. Of wich I am using a length of 2" square pipe stock for my custom manifold.
