I went down to Boeing Surplus today to do some more "research" and

found

that

what I though and was pointed out to me as being inconel was actually
titainium. I should have looked closer. There were 38 16' long by 5"

dia X

.050 thick tubes. There was inconel there, but only 3.5" dia x .025

tube.

There were various thicknesses of plate and sheet. I talked to the

metals guy

and he told me to fax him a request for what I want in Inconel and he

will

try to set me up with it. This will be a longer process, but I think

we will

be able to get what we want. So- here's what I have so far-

Gary Palmer- 3-4' of 5" tube
Galen Lerol    5'  of tube
Perry Casson 4' of tube
Archie Max lengths ups able( that would be 109" at around $78 for

shipping)

John Slade 6' tube and 2 sq. ft. of plate
Ernesto Sanchez 44" of tube and 12" x 44" of plate
Vlad 16" of tube

So we are looking at 39' of tube and ~6 sq. ft. of plate, besides

what I and

Archie wants. How much do you want, Archie?

I' ll sent a request off to the guy at Boeing. He said it might take

a

while,

around a month. I'm taking off for the East coast and will be back on

the

19th.  I know this is sort of a tedious process, but hang in there

and we'll

see if we can get this stuff before  the end of Sept.

 Take care

I would like 10 feet of five inch .035 wall and twenty feet of
2 inch OD .035 wall plus a couple of square feet of 1/4 inch plate.
I could also use five feet of 3 inch OD .035 wall.

I'll take some 2"x.035 and 3"x.035 too.  Maybe one length of each that

fits

UPS standards.  I would still be interested if the walls got as thick as
.065.  I think I'd rather use 3/8 plate for my flanges...exhaust leaks

can

ruin your day.
