When I taught boating safety for the USPower Squadrons, we always said 
that there were no dumb questions-just maybe some dumb answers.

It seems like you got a burst of the latter.  

If you are not too choosey about sources, there are recycle places and 
junk yards and etc. to use as sources for metals which will be a lot 
cheaper than most supply houses when it comes to small chunks.  Everett 
Steel has a back door operation which sells stuff at first quantity break 
prices.  Maybe there is an operation like that around you.

Welcome to our hobby.  It will be whatever you make it and after a while 
the holes will be in the right places and the 0.001 fits will be what you 
get.  Oh, yes, ask questions and for every sorehead, there are many great 
guys around to help you.   "CC"
