Good source for MS Sheet ready cut to size in the UK - Fabricius Carbo - 06-20-2016
Not sure if this is the right place for this but I found a good source for Mild Steel Sheet in the UK.
I used thrm to source the steel for my Segmentata.
Sheet sizes from 500 x 500 mm up to 500 x 1250
They offer a cutting service with the first 10 cuts per sheet for free, straight cuts.
They can also do mitre cuts, profiling and laser cutting of shapes but at extra cost

I don't have any connection with them other than as a customer.

Fabricivs there is also this store

This one is near me but nation wide they also cut the plates for a lorica I made if I remember right £ 35 for a 8 x 4 ft sheet but that was a few years ago
I liked this seller because you can walk in and see what they have,to me a sweet shop

Gateshead is good, I am on Teesside and do a lot of work in Team Valley.
How do they charge for cutting?
RE: Good source for MS Sheet ready cut to size in the UK - brennivs - tony drake - 06-20-2016
If I am right they didn't charge but I just had the girdle plates/shoulder ect and thechest plates as one stripes I have a bench cutter. I presume you are going to make a Seggy ? Well you are in the right place
