  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here!

I'm looking at some 2020 extrusion in 2000mm lengths.
Has anyone bought extrusion from Faztek out of Montrreal?
 
Thanks, I'll do some googling for Mississauga vendors.
 
Let us know how yo make out by the time cut & ship is all factored. There have been a few projects I thought this would be good material. I've seen some Ebay type discounters but unless its a very well known standard, the fittings can vary & you kind of live & die by those to make anything

I’m looking at 10 lengths of 2020, 1980mm long. $161 for the material, $20 taxes and $94 shipping from Faztek.
Spool3D in Calgary has free shipping for orders over $140 but they only have 250, 500, 1000 and 1500mm lengths so I'd need more to get my cuts. I have to sit down with the cut list and see how it works out.

Edit: Went through the cut list.
1 - 250 mm,
6 - 1000mm
9 - 15000mm sticks from Spool3D.

Spool3D is more expensive per piece and even with free shipping it's still ~$50 more from Spool3D
