    Is there anyone in Washington or Northern Oregon that offers aluminum fab, specifically 8020 extruded aluminum? I need some lengths over 8' and I'm trying to avoid paying freight if at all possible.

    If you're looking for 8020, Amazon carries 8ft lengths.

    8020, I'm specifically looking for 100"+ lengths, hence the freight shipping I'd like to avoid.

    OnlineMetals sounds generic but they are in Seattle and you can pick up directly from them to avoid any shipping costs.

    OnlineMetals sells 8020? I can't find it on their website?

    Never used OnlineMetals before, but checked the website out and amazed on how high steel prices are. Just checked to see how much 3/16 steel plate is so I could make new skids and actually shed a tear

    No, they don't. OP never stated he was looking for 8020... just "extruded aluminum".

    Online Metals has always been stupid expensive (cost of no lead time)... but with recent distribution issues, I'm sure they've had to jack up all of their prices even more.

    What size sheet of 3/16" were you looking for? What did OL quote?

    My father owns a fab shop and carries steel stock... curious to see what their pricing would be.

    I think most people were commenting on 8020 so I made an assumption that maybe they had some other knock-off t-nut/slotted/etc... type Al extrusions. Oh well...
