I typed the words "corrugated metal in to Google and came up with a large number of vendors. <BR>
<BR>
An 4 x 8 sheet might be a low as $6 - $8 depending on gauge and shipping/transport costs. <BR>
<BR>
Hope this helps. <BR>

<BR>
Hi all. We are looking to make some wood chairs with backs covered in corrugated metal. Ideally, we would do this with metal of a thinner gauge than actual roofing, for weight/cost/ease of use. But also, due to the abuse these chairs will probably receive (and the fact the director will probably try to use them as percussion instruments of a sort), we don't want to use corrugated plastic sheeting instead. I'm toying with the idea of purchasing thin gauge sheet metal panels and creating a jig to corrugate them myself. Thought I'd pass this along in case any of you have experience working with a lightweight corrugated metal material that you can share. Maybe the real deal will be just fine, not sure yet. <BR>
<BR>
Thanks.<BR>
