[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 251557, member: 55"] Here's where you have to outsmart the search box. Seems to me that it wants 3 characters (not counting punctuation), or more. In your case, you are looking for .09 aluminum. But remember, sheet aluminum is sold in thousandths, not hundredths, so for those of us that work with aluminum on a regular basis would ask for 90 thousandths, or .090, which is what is going to be written nearly every time. Walla, you now have your 3 characters, and the search works. 27 results. Remember those significant figures from your high school physics and chemistry classes? Well, believe it or not, they are useful in life. :lol: [/QUOTE]
