    Reposting the same questions every 2 days is not helping your situation. This is not Craigslist or Facebook.

    I would suggest you go and read the forum rules and then read some old threads. There's plenty of info on where to get aluminum and copper. I've posted many times about my sources for both and a lot more.

    Have you read any of my posts?
