Afaik, Austin is a fairly large town with a decent manufacturing base. In Bakersfield, there were oil field companies that salvaged various things from office furniture to Waukesha 10 cylinder diesel pumps. Place called recycled materials was my favorite for chinese 2024 aluminum after it was discovered it wasn't to spec. Rain for Rent for anything tube shaped or water tank supplies and assorted pumps/valves. Should be similar places to where youre at, but sadly the days of $2.00 1/4 sheets of aluminum remnants are gone.
