Canadian Suppliers?

[shirk]

I would like to collect a list of supply sources north of the border, obviously many items won't have a Canadian source but some stuff would be good to source here.

flux? brazing rod? silver? thin wall 4130 straight gauge? files?

When I was getting my torch set up I figured I could get a couple things like tips and hose locally, a nightmare of calling 10 different local weld shops left me just ordering online from the US. International shipping fee's and duties really start to add up.

You can get a limited selection of columbus steel tubes and various dropouts/lugs from Marinoni.
Orange sports carries some basic tools like reamers/facers.
For silver and flux I've just been ordering from Cycle Designs in the states.
For brass and flux I bought from Henry James.
For 4130 i've ordered from aircraftspruce.ca they sell in small enough QTY. I'm sure there is someone local in vancouver servicing at an industrial scale for 4130 but for small qty like i had bought for stems etc online worked out well.

I've ordered straight gauge from Online Metals. Easy to use website and fast shipping to Canada. Unfortunately its a bit expensive. I've also bought from Thyssen Krupp in Langley BC on a larger scale though, they will only do full lengths and pretty much aren't interested in customers of our scale.

I live in Rochester, NY and will be driving up to the Muskoka area in Sept. I'd be happy to try to be a delivery boy to any one along my route. Andy.
