Magnesium Vendor?

Anyone have some suggestions on where to get plate and sheet magnesium? I would like to fab more of my stuff from mag, but am realizing how spoiled I am with the aluminum supply I have access to.

 

mag

It's outrageously expensive but I finally found a place that seemed to make sense. I think it's M&b metals out of canada. They were cool on shipping,small quantities and welding rod too. I found it with Google.
Mag has virtually dissappeared from aircraft so it's become a lot more oddball.

 

How much are you looking for?
I had to buy a piece recently and man it isnt cheap.
We finished our small project and I have a peice of 90k thats approx 20"x20" if that helps.

 

Mag

I asked a company I do business with. They used to do a lot of Mag but use aluminum now.
Here is a source he gave me.
Magnesium Elektron
618 Marston Ave
Glen Ellyn, Il 60137

He gave me his reps Cell # . I did not want to post the guys cell so PM me if you want it.



Hope this helps.

Can you form it like aluminum?

I'm thinking 3/16-1/4 thick, bent at a 90° angle with a generous radius, maybe 1/2"
