3/8 inch CRS

[ducdon]

When I need 3/8 inch CRS I go to hardware store and buy 12 inch non-coated nails.

What does CRS stand for? Cold Rolled Steel?

I use Resource Metals (resourcemetals.ca), located in Oakville. For roundbar, I can't find a better price. No affiliation. Just a good customer. Damn shame they're not open on weekends.

Aha! I'm in Oakville, too, and I did not know about this company. Do they have a minimum purchase?

No, no minimums at all. In fact, they're having a 20-year anniversary raffle. For every as-is (off-cut or end-cut) you purchase, they'll give you a ticket into a raffle to win one of three prizes - $200 off your next purchase, $100 off your next purchase, and $20 off your next purchase.

I buy almost exclusively from them, except when I need plate. Then they are reasonably competitive with the rest.

I was on that side of town today so I dropped in. Really good selection of offcuts. The young woman behind the counter was friendly and pointed out where they store various materials. Wide range of alloys. Then she mentioned that there is more in the back (like cast iron) that won't fit on their shelves at the front! For sure, I'm going to give them a go the next time I need something.

It's only 3176 km from my house. If I start driving now I can be there Monday morning when they open...

So, should I put extra coffee on?
