Does anyone know a dealer/yard in or near San Francisco, CA that will sell a
small piece (12"x12"x3/8") of mild steel plate.

Thanks,

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Try Alco, at the corner of Davis Street and Doolittle Drive, in San Leandro.
They have tons (literally) of scrap. You probably won't find a piece
exactly that size. You may have to pay the minimum to get what you want, so
be prepared to pad up your purchase.

This Alco place sounds good... found their website. They allow the public
to scrounge around. A bit of a drive, but probably worth it. Thanks.

Allen Steel & Supply, or Alan Steel & Supply (seen it both ways), in
Redwood City right off 101 at Whipple. It's a big place you can have
fun wandering around.

I second that. Alan is a good guy to deal with, he has a pretty good
selection of stock, and a large junkyard to find goodies in.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. Went down to Alco and got exactly
what I needed. I may try some of the others when I need more. Always good
to have alternatives.
