off bad... we're in the process of rescanning our coils and we've whittled it down a little bit but still off quite a bit. Dominion, shoot me a pm with your info, I'll forward it to the powers that be. We have used Stiles out of Houston for the last 30 or so years... built, those boots are the ****, my new chic picked them out (gotta keep them happy ya know) mainly because they were the only pair of 14Ds in the store...

LOL... true true... we're down to ~120,000 right now... we have a small fudge factor, so once we get down to around 40k I'm calling off the search and turning it in as is.

Someone else in the steel business!! Ya'll do much business with Steel Wharehouse. Looks like from the pics you handle mostly galvanized? We run alot of high strength, up to 96w 3/4 and up to 60ft long. We also slit to width up to 1/2in I believe and have a full fab operation where we make the armored panels for the M.R.A.P. armored personel carrier, and a bunch of other stuff. I work in maintenance so I mostly spend my time up on cranes and repairing "operator errors" Whats really nice is when they run a piece of 3/4 into the stacker!! Tears the damn thing right out of the floor!
