I just did another install of this a couple of weeks ago for a client and the total for two sheets was only $65.00 plus tax. I hope you were able to find a supplier with better prices. Nonetheless, I bet your project turned out awesome! <br /><br />:) DanaTattered Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07386554874860297581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420470995005087408.post-52368878950477491462013-08-30T22:24:21.066-05:002013-08-30T22:24:21.066-05:00Hi Shanda ~ Actually for this installation, it was...Hi Shanda ~ Actually for this installation, it was one big piece of sheet metal. I just ran a row of screws down the middle so it wouldn't buckle on me. Here's the link to another post where I used two pieces of sheet metal: http://tatteredstyle.blogspot.com/2011/07/x2vol-office-space-part-i.html. I butted them together as close as possible. If you look closely you will be able to see the two rows of screws. Hope this helps. <br /><br />:) Dana Tattered Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07386554874860297581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420470995005087408.post-74398455857199210922013-07-24T21:08:16.636-05:002013-07-24T21:08:16.636-05:00Could you tell me how you put the two edges of the...Could you tell me how you put the two edges of the two pieces of metal together?
