| best place to get metal for fabbing exhausts?
I'm ready to start playing with my MIG a little more seriously, but I need to find an affordable place to get a good assortment of material, preferable stainless and aluminum coated non-stainless steel for exhausts.
I know of Metal Supermarket in BBY and Langley, but they only have straight pieces and they don't do bending, only cutting.
I was hoping there would be a place like metal supermarket but that has pre-bent sections for sale or at least has a mandrel bender or even just a pipe bender on site if they don't stock pre-bent,
Anybody with experience?

lots of places should have mandrel bent 180* Us that you can cut and piece together to make whatever bends you need. dont know any off hand, but im sure someone will.

lordco, mopac, kms tools, mandrel-bends.com, kinetic motorsport, accent stainless, acestainless.com, mac industrial exhaust, any semi-truck place that sells donaldson or nelson products
No point getting stainless unless you are running tri-mix with your mig.

Go to a metal mart. There is one right in the driveway to the east of this marker... IIRC they have a bender.

I bought 2.5'' 304 SS for $8.xx/foot.

PM me if you want some free small scrap pieces for testing. Once you use sanitary stainless bends you won't go back to mandrel bent stuff. Its the same or cheaper than regular stainless bends and even the regular steel bends at kms.
