I don’t know if it’s still true, but for Ti Ron used to get fuselage off cuts from the aerospace industry that were too short for anything but to be recycled. So his pricing for materials was basically scrap pricing. This was true in at least 2009 when we were taking about Ti toe cages and a Mafac style front rack.
It’s Ron Andrews BTW ;)
