A little problem just roof up...

Postby jlrelp » Wed Sep 01, 2004 10:00 am

Went and pick up th Aluminum yesterday. It is 4x8 on the cubby need an 4x10 sheet to complete the roof. After looking some more found 4x10 sheet, but they are not (Anodize) spelling could be wrong.. What to do???

I like the look of the Anodize
1. used two sheets of the 4x8 to complete the roof
used butt joint or overlap the sheet so water does not get in. used a 1x2 in wide flat aluminum to cover the joint....

2. go with the single sheet 4x10 but is not Anodize...???>>>


If I with the single sheet could use the other sheet for the counter top...
any ideas

Try Eastern Metal Supply. Houston Location 800-996-6061 Sales rep Krishna. http://www.easternmetal.com
I priced a 5x12x.063 at $99.75. They run a truck every monday to San Antonio $200 minimum order. Do not know how much farther they go for that. Do not know about anodized but they are very helpful. Many many odd shaped extrusions available for viewing on their website.
If you want me to receive an order from them here in SA and you come pick it up at your convenience, let me know. D. Tillery
