|    Stock Storage    |
|    09 Jun 25 16:50:07    |
      From: none@none.com99              For the type of work I do I buy a bit of aluminum flat bar. My last       order was a little over 900lbs of 12ft long bars, and I had another       600-700 lbs of full bars on hand plus shorts and cutoff.              The cutoffs I put on shelves, but the 12 footers I really haven't a       place for. At the moment I've got the latest order outdoors leaning up       against a shipping container, and the rest of the older stock is leaning       up against shelves and walls inside the shop. The inside of the       shipping container is lined with shelves being used to recover space in       the shop, and it's not setup for practical stock storage.              I hate it.              Of course I also buy a little bit of 20' aluminum pipe and tube. That       is to long to lean up against anything inside the shop, but one problem       at a time.              If you have a storage solution for the standard (maybe only USA       standard) 12 foot stock flat bar I'd love to see it. My shop has a 16ft       eave height so I can store it vertically anywhere inside that I have the       floor space, but I am trying to recover, not lose floor space right now.        I am even considering just storing it all outdoors.              Modify message              --       Bob La Londe       CNC Molds N Stuff                     --       This email has been checked for viruses by AVG antivirus software.       www.avg.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
