[Dare]

Anyone know where I could get some for cheaps?
Need it for an electrolytic de-rusting project, thanks!

Edit: Oh and a bin/barrel/giant bucket of some description would be good too

Got shit loads in East Tamaki.

Fair drive from here but I'm down if there's nothing closer to home, cheers.
Does it need cutting up? Got an estate..

[nosebleed]

All sorts of lengths from full 6m to off-cuts from 100mm upwards.

I'll PM you the address if/when you want to go ahead.

If you are in Beach Haven(guessing The Haven means that) I have some rebar you can have and I can cut it to whatever length you want.
Just PM me .

If it needs to be plastic (i.e. for a plating/etching tank type thing) then the warehouse has a pretty good selection for cheap, or a fish bin from mitre10 mega? Failing that you can get plastic 100L ex-fert drums from various places for cheap too, can smell a bit if they're one of the fish based ones...

Edit: Or appropriate a wheely bin from somewhere (cough cough)

[motorbyclist]

wheelie bins are even easy to move

This is true... Just lash the handles to the back of your bike and you're set...

If you're after bits and pieces without too much travel, most builders' merchants will probably have some offcuts lying around - should be a PLacemakers, Carters, Bunnings etc somewhere near you.

[Dare]

Getting there...

[jono035]

Nice... Got a multi-meter to see how much current is going in?

Also, grab yourself some sulfuric from a chem lab (or dilute some cheap battery acid frmo supercheap), some clothing dye and you're good to go for home anodizing, too...
