I need around 150mm/6" of 0.7mm/30 thou ish by 13.0mm/ half inch wide carbon spring steel if anyone has a coil please. This is not a size I ever use so I would rather not buy a 5m length unless I really have to.

Anyone?

M Machine sell spring steel by the inch or the foot depending on size.

Just put m machine in your search engine.

You are quite right, and only GBP3.00 a foot, postage is a bit stiff so it might be worth me ordering whatever I am low on.

Thank you.

They are just down the road from me I collect my stuff from them so I dont have to pay postage. They are really nice people to deal with.
The machine shop is fantastic its a proper old fashioned family run buisness. When I go they have to chuck me out I am blown away by the stuff they do. There metal stock is amazing.

A 12" length of 22SWG by 0.5" wide spring steel strip would be super thank you. Please ask them to cut in half lengthways to make it easier to post and it should cost GBP3.00 plus your postage.

Let me know the final bill please :)

Cancel that please, I was just chatting to our clock man and he has loads of the stuff and is posting something to me anyway so it worked out well.
