Turning a Brinley Cultivator into a Wheel Horse

I feel your pain needed a stick of 1/2 x 2 x 20.5 foot hot roll
to make some brackets for new seed drill
what should of been $45 -/+ i paid $68 customer pick up

as steel goes i am blessed living where i do.
in genera prices are up around 50%, like everything these days
but local pricing is based by the pound and not as much the size
living in a area of heavy industry has its benefits

on the other hand don't even think about buying lumber, price gouging going on for sure
copper wire last year 12 gauge 500ft roll was $50 now $118
was going to reroute a water line at the farm till i got a price on 400ft of 4 inch pvc

lots of projects getting put on hold here on the farm and at work because of the new prices
