Since there is such a heavy presents of US Military in Hawaii ,,, you might even find some silicon bronze supply, there .
Douglas,
Thanks for reply. I am in contact with Alaskan Copper and Brass. Their fabrication shop can water jet cut from silicon bronze plate the size I need for my chain plates. This is great as I could not find silicon bronze flat bar that would meet my dimensions and I did not want to buy oversized bar and then have to mill or cut it down to size. Bronze plate is available in a lot morte thicknesses as compared to flat bar.
Regards
