very long radius beam ???

[nick-p]

wondered if there is an alternative 18" [ or longer ] alluminium radius block to the stewmac version ?.  i need a 10" and maybe a 12" radius too but once uk shipping goes on the bill the cost is kinda high. does anyone else make them or maybe a seller who ships used ones to the uk ?. [ would really like metal, not wooden type ]

Befriend a machinist, show him a picture and tell him what you want.

We use these long Aluminum Stewmac beams in our shop and wouldn't be without them - the metal ones are far superior in stability and longevity when compared to the old short wooden blocks and are far more accurate in application.   We had a look at getting them made locally but machine shops (even friendly ones) couldn't do it for anywhere near the price of the STEWMAC ones.
