Living in Fuquay-Varina, and haven’t run across it. So I’m interested. But we did say maybe Pik N Pig in Carthage if @quest4reds has time to meet up. Or North to meet with @Sparky83 , or even west to try to catch @MAKO314 or @fuzzy1626 .

I dan do about any week day night, who is available?

Which place in Raleigh are you looking at? Metal Supermarket in south Raleigh down by Garner, or Dillon Supply in east Raleigh off Poole road?

Id much rather deal with metal supermarket, unless you are buying a semi truck load, Dillon supply isn't interested in selling anything, atleast that's basically what I was told when I went there.

right now im waiting to hear back from Metal super markets... Dillon never showed up in my google searches... (google use to be nice... now its not so accurate with their searches kept getting a company that sold metal for hvac ducting or plumbing not actual steel distributors).. Ill have to shoot Dillon a message on their contact site for an estimate as well...

Edit: I just checked my email and saw that MSM just replied about an hr ago. They were way higher than the one in Wilson... Granted i liked the fact they gave me the prices with the pieces precut... but still much higher than the other company i use to do business with despite theyre not offing the free cut like the one i bought from in VB...

I've only bought from Dillon Metal Supply, the Metal Supermarket is new and I have never been there yet, but excited to check it out. I just have not needed any sheet metal or angle iron in the last couple of years because I still have quite a bit. Dillon is definitely more geared towards selling bulk, but they have a great selection and never gave me a problem.

So May 21st or 23rd at Daddy D's in Fuquay. It's the Tuesday or Thursday. Who's in, and which one is better for you?

Sparky, let me know which day you'll be out this way, and we can try to plan a get together then, unless it's next week, then we already might have one planned.
