I only need about 3-4" or so. I'd buy from one of the small-quantity online vendors but the shipping is ridiculous. Thanks, Matt

I've ordered aluminum flat & gotten Mic-6 plate, which is a nice bonus. http://stores.ebay.com/Discount-Ste...16QQ_sidZ686251536QQ_trksidZp4634Q2ec0Q2em322

If you want the OFC super high purity stuff, you may need to look elsewhere.
