910 forum posts 197 photos	A plea to any one in the heat treatment industry that uses 321 or otherwise stainless steel tool wrap. I am after a piece annealed of about 24"x 60"x 0.002" to make replacement outer skins for my National record breaking flash steam tethered hydroplane steam generator. 122.91mph at Kingsbury water park on the 23/09/2012 (to be ratified). I have had quotes but would have to buy a 7.6 metre roll at £222.00 total. Does anyone know where I could purchase a small quantity at a reasonable price. The model has not to exceed 16lbs dry which I just managed to achieve. The steam generators outer skin weight could be reduced by a few ozs if I use tool wrap of 0.002" thickness. Help.
