Building another Hutch Terry ?  :LolLolLolLol:

Try upton steel . I know they are a huge company and deal with all kinds of metals  but not sure if it's just sheet they deal with.

Maybe ask Katie on the vincent frames thread, she should be able to steer you in the right direction  :daumenhoch:

fair few if you google it like

http://www.dynamicmetalsltd.co.uk/metals_alloysteel.html

or

http://www.onlinemetals.com/merchant.cfm?id=250&step=2

Its a cracking site and they do small quantities though they are in the states.
Been looking myself for my top secret brake caliper idea  ;)

I know what you mean. I have that trouble all the time at work. I think the tubing comes stock at 4metre so if you could find somewhere local they may let you buy one length. That yank site is just the ticket for small bits and pieces. dunno if they ship though, i never got that far  :daumenhoch:
