Trevor-
Try online metals, I've had good luck with them when I need 304L in odd
sizes.
You'll have to cut and paste,but it'll get you to the sheet SS page.

or Service Steel Aerospace, though they are in the PNW,

It only goes one way- Pay It Forward



I have a small workbench in the corner of my home garage that is 23" x 52".
The bench top is actually just made from scrap 2x4's and it has always had
a sheet of aluminum on it for a surface.  The aluminum was too thin and has
seen better days so I want to replace it with stainless steel.  I've been
watching Craigslist for an old kitchen prep table but they all seem to
bring good money.

The question:  If I were to just go out and buy a sheet of new stainless
for the bench surface ... what gauge would be sufficient?

Alternate question:  Any other suggestions for something to use as a bench
top surface?
