Where to get 1 1/2" high carbon square bar stock?

[Will52100]

Got a couple of projects and it would be great if I could get some 1 1/2" square bar in a 1070-1095, W1, ect steel.

Any body got a source?

Thanks

Call Aldo. He may be able to get some, or know who has it.

www.speedymetals.com has quite a bit of stuff, but it looks like the only thing they have in square is A2.

Will, get a piece of W1 drill rod large enough to press into the square you want.

+1. That's a good idea! Thick round bar is easy enough to find. I know a seller on the bay is listing w1 rounds that go up to 1 1/2"

Trembley tool steel has drops and may have what you need.

Thanks, I found some 1 3/4" W1 drill rod, I can forge it square easy enough.
