I was thinking that finding the generator of the scrap would be hard,
but finding dealers who might resell would be easier. There used to be
a few businesses that sold industrial surplus and offcuts for re-use,
but I can't find anything of the kind now. Admittedly I haven't looked
in at least a decade. The world has changed a lot in the past few years.

I expected non-local, but it looks like non-existent is the rule.

Sorry for the bum steer,
