I am looking at building a new rail gun.
I am looking for a thick walled rectangular box section.
I can only find this in 6m length, but I only need 600mm.
Any ideas where I might be able to get this?

Yeah, scrap metal dealers are a good source. When I built my first rail back in the 80's, I could only purchase a 6m length of aluminium H beam. I didn't want to do that!
I found a scrap dealer who happened to have a one meter cut off. I think it cost me about 20 bucks at the time
