hey bob, you copying that skid you posted up a month ago?

you're looking at anywhere between 2.50 - high 3's a foot depending on where you go for a 24 ft stick 1/1.5 dom tube.  I am sure you could do cheaper getting random lengths out of the scrap pile (turner steel for example).

you could also go hot rolled instead of dom to save a few bucks.

i would personally go hot rolled, i think it would be fine and save you almost a dollar a foot

Bob - Double that order and I will bring down the welder ;D  There are also a few places up here where I might be able to pick it up.  Let's talk Tuesday at the meeting.

Hey cj7 fan, where are you getting it? I need to buy some DOM tubing, around 1.5 inch as well as some square 2inch .25 wall steel for my bumper and rock sliders. Think any place around here like cavaliers or lowell iron and steel would be willing to give us a discount?
