check any mechanical/plumbing engineering company, people who do electrical and piping for gas stations, generators
any boat shop...like work shop not retail
this one should be obvious but a welding place is almost garunteed to have some scrap you can use
on that note you should find that most of the guys that are in those fields would be happy to give you a pice of scrap if you asked, hell buy em a beer and **** and you might eventually have access to cheap welding or materials.... (all the welding shops on the island are run by miserable people so i still raid their scrap bin on sundays:gay:

Robbing from Rice
Go into some ricer neighborhood with a screwdriver, find a honda with some exposed IC pipes and take what you need.
Here's what I am talking about
