61 forum posts	That's outside my area, thanks. I'm looking for somewhere that's closer to home (ST13 postcode) so I can collect, and ideally someone who sells offcuts. The main stockist is nearby, but they only sell full sheets of 2500mmx1250mm in 1.5mm. I rang around and all I can find is 1mm cut to size from places that make ventilation and ducting.

Also look for industrial units being demolished which will be ripping out such ductwork. Some washing machines have removable rear panels that are galvanised sheet.
