I get my scrap out of the rolloff I have on the back of my tractor trailer.......I'm a scraphauler by day and a farmer at other times.

Nobel Metals in Oak Ridge TN, 30 cents a pound for steel
1.30 for aluminium and stainless. They'll also buy your scrap but did'nt ask the rate.

Welded my clamp on forks today, as a first ever welding job, they aint purty, but they are strong enough to lift the rear wheels if the load is too much.

I think you're my new hero. How would that be...

Thanks guys! Sounds like some great leads. I'm not near Seattle (or VA) but I do have some scrap dealers in the area that I will have to try in a little while. I'd go sooner, but I blew all of my "play money" yesterday on SJOW AWG 16/3 cord for rewiring my trailer, tractor, etc. It was under $0.14/ft. They actually had a bunch of 1/4" flat stock steel, but no angle iron. Plus, I was in the car at the time and I really didn't want to strap the 12ft. sections to the top for the 30 mile drive back home.
