Hey Guys,

Anywhere local I can get marine grade 1/4" plate stock.

Need a 24" x 24" piece.

You want to use grade 5052, that is the corrosion resistant marine alloy.

160 bucks at

http://www.mcmaster.com

because its a brushed finish only.

That is who we use, but you can prolly do better locally.
Or try ebay, I got some nice 5052 tube stock really cheap.
