John,

>     Very few shops stock sheet metal - 

    I'm sure there are areas that don't but I, for one, can never
    understand wasting a lot of my creative time (and production time)
    rolling metal down to what I need. In a rush situation when I'm
    desperate, occasionally when I end up with something that isn't what
    I use normally I might or in a karat/color I don't use a lot of and
    don't want to invest more into, but with today's ability to buy
    perfectly formed sheet in any size and get it overnight if necessary
    why bother? No matter how much time I spend rolling it never comes
    out as well made as Hoover's does anyway so I actually end up with a
    lot less waste using their sheet than making my own. And the time I
    save more than makes up for any minor extra costs incurred.
