Where to obtain Oval tubing / odd size rectangular?

[dark_biker]

Hi, My names Alex Dark and I'm 19 doing an ND in Engineering....for my final project I'm making an aluminium trialsbike frame but I'm stumped as to where to source the material for the dropouts or chainstays. I need around 1.25m for the actual frame.

I can use either 3/4 x 1" rectangular tubing ( 16swg 6082 )

orrr

Oval tubing that is around 25 x 15mm ( again 16swg, 6082 )..

I have all the concept drawings, Solidworks renderings etc so I'm ready to go I just need to source these last pieces.

Any help in obtaining this material would be GREATLY appreciated I'm quickloy nearing a deadline.

If anyone wants to see renderings of my work etc then just post in here and I'll keep you updated.

Cheers, Alex Dark

Try a google for Ceeway, they do bike building supplies and will probably help with any obscure parts you need.

Try Aviation material suppliers.
