Resources - Singapore
This section list down the places where tools, raw materials, machines, etc can be purchased locally. I've been through, like most hobbyists in SG, quite a tough time sourcing for things I need for the hobby. Though most of the stuff I've are bought from overseas webstores (Little Machine Shop, Arc Euro Trade, CTC Tools, etc), there are a few shops I find locally through friends and fellow hobbyists.
Do drop me a mail via Contact Wongster should you know of others that are not listed here.

Remarks: I've only been to the HQ twice. The workers on ground level are rather friendly. The father of the owners runs the branch at Kelantan Road, which I frequent. The temperament of the old man can be worst than what I heard of the weather in Melbourne Australia. The worker outside the shop is rather nice to deal with.

Teck Cheong Aluminium Pte Ltd
Blk 803 King George's Avenue
#01-246-248-250
Singapore 200803
Tel: 6294 9650
Website: www.teckcheong.com
Remarks: I chanced upon this shop while shopping around the area a couple of years back. Didn't buy anything from them then as they don't sell loose pieces. The standard length for each type of aluminium product they carry are 5 metres. But they do chop it up to shorter length for ease of transport. Check out their aluminium extrusions. Reasonable, price wise. A 5m length of aluminimum extrusion 20 x 20mm is selling at $33 + GST.
