I did not see any D-2, but I have a big block of O-1.


What are the measurements and weight?


6x3x44, appx 223 lbs


How many brushes of what kind do you want for it?

Special rec.crafts.metalworking price is $1/lb. ATM I have a lot of
brushes, we mostly use 4 and 6 inch cup brushes.

Let me see what freight would be, can and will you cut it?


Should be about $148 to ship to location with forklift.

Or free pick-up from me.

I am not sure if I can cut O-1, I have a 12 inch bandsaw.

I don't think it NEEDS to be cut shorter. do you? I just thought you
would band it on a skid. I figure about 25 lbs for the skid. My
freight guy is waiting for a call-back from FedEx freight, our favorite
carrier. OBTW, how do you know it's O-1?


I do not need to cut it for shipping, no.

It has written "Northern Illinois Steel O-1 tool steel" on the side.

The seller had no incentive to lie about it, as I bought all his 15
tons of steel for just $1k.
