Bought a Jet slip roll from Triangle, from the previous owner.
I stopped trying to go by there after 3 trips in a row I hit the
weekends he was closed. New owners are supposed to be open every
saturday, but I've not had time to get down that way in about a year.

Blue Collar is a mainstay for me! I routinely go by just to stock up on
1/4" AL plate and odds and ends. They had about a 2'x3'x1.5" titanium
plate, blancard ground both sides laying around for several years for
under $200. Wanted to buy that just for the GeeWhiz factor...

I've got a lot of small misc scraps of P20, H10, and S7, mold steels
all, and some decent scraps that were cut out of mold bases. Don't know
what that steel is for sure, it's marked DME#2 and is tougher than CRS.
You get by Grass Valley often?
With veto power reserved, I'd let you pick through my collection. I'll
never use it all.

Anyone looking for Grade 8 might check for a phone number on that place. They also have small rubber wheels for some odd reason (more than anyone might expect to find on shelves). Imagine walking into a store filled with Grade 8 Hardware and 6", 8", and 10" tires and wheels? I went back out the front door to see if Rod Sterling was standing in front of Camera One.
