I find Fletchers way more useful than Steel & Tube as well.
There prices seem to be cheaper too.

I just got the paperwork in to them and the account is being set up as we speak. around $4-5 a length cheaper on the 40mm pipe than S & T and cheaper than where I was buying it (and closer to home

)

Its done. Although it can only be ordered by me at this stage till i get it rolling... I'll try to do orders in bulk, delivery to my place is $30 on their standard run. (8m lengths only in box and 6.5m in tube). I would assume delivery to other places would be the same - although if you just happen to have a very big truck you could collect

If you need short lengths try Rangiora Engineering as they sell by the metre. Or give me a txt or a PM and ask if I have short lengths of what you need here.
