ibs740 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Hi, Anyone have some sources for H13 tool steel in Canada? Speedy Metal in WI will ship, just seeing if something is closer but magic web searches show naught. cheers ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNewman Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 How much are you looking for? What sizes? and most importantly where in Canada? We are the second largest country in the world by area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibs740 Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 I'm looking for 1 1/2" solid rd bar, 24". I'm in Ottawa. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNewman Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 You should try Metal Supermarkets. I have a cheaper source but you would have to buy a full length. I have a length of 1" and would sell a piece of it but don't have anything but small pieces of larger stock except for a 24" piece of 5" round.

ibs740 Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Thanks John, I'd talked to them but they didn't have any. After I posted this I tripped over a discussion with Brian Brazeal where he said it was very difficult to forge H13 with hand hammers. I'd appreciate your opinion on this and will post same question elsewhere. cheers ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
