Metal takeoff
Drop the set. Get the metals, listed by sheet and priced.
Every line carries the sheet it came from. Anything the drawings don't show comes back as a question. Small items price right away; stairs, rails and structural steel get a look from the shop before the price is final. Other trades are listed, not priced. The list is free, no account needed.

The shop

I run the shop. The engine prices your part and draws it. I check every order before any steel is cut, and when a job needs a person, I am the one who calls you.
