A while ago I was looking for Alum square stock here in Snooky. The place I found had some square plastic end caps like those pictured, but not many. You might want to look for places that sell alum. stock or make alum, window/door frames.

Most welders shops have them. They'd probably let you buy a few off them even if they're not the ones making the stuff for you.

I'll ask around a bit more in other welding shops, the guys that did my welding for me didn't know what I was talking about, even with the benefit of Google Images.

Hmmm... The welders I used had them. If you can't find them at a welder's shop, I'm pretty sure the Haffle shop on 432 has them.

These were found at the steel suppliers for a few cents each. Thanks for the input.
