I was feeling ambitious today, and wanted to get material for a frame to mount my lathe, so it could be rolled around on leveling castors. I chose 2x3 box tubing hoping it would be rigid enough for the purpose. I went to our only supply shop, and they only had 1/4" wall, so I said ok, overkill. I know the owner, and he said he would cut it for me no charge. I gave him my dimensions, and ended up with an extra 3' piece to bring home for what ever. Go in the office talk a bit, the invoice is 400 dollars for 25'. I put away my cash, and use the credit card with a hard swallow. Oh well
