Default Where to get Metal Sheet?

Last time I cut sheet steel it was with a hand
nibbler, an Eclipse 2000 "Goscut".

This was an 8x4 sheet (yes, 8x4ft) of 1mm zinc
plated steel, I think tradename "Zintec", and by
golly it was hard work.... the thing nibbled in
only 1/4" mouthfuls, and at the end of the job I
had forearms like Popeye.


Back in my teenage days I put side windows in my minivan cutting
the holes with a Monodex cutter. Blisters on my right hand for
days
