I am looking for some actual 2" EIPS IWRC or even slightly larger cable to play with. Not Galvanized obviously...

Just call up West coast wire rope or Pacific Industrial and tell them you need some short drops... They throw short chunks in the scrap tub all the time, or better yet show up wit ha box of doughnuts and them them your a blacksmith
Whatever you are, be a good one.

Ya already went to Northwest they dont have anything and I think they called Pacific and the largest remnant he had was 1 3/4 and wouldnt part with the length unless you bought all 100 feet. Thanks though I am callin around...the national distributor I talked to wanted about 26 bucks a foot with 25 foot minimum then shipping...just was wonderin if anyone had some laying around the shop

GO TO NW wire Rope or Pacific Industrial supply. Bring a nice little cable knife/letter opener and get to know someone. If they like you, they'll give you a friggin' truck load! Otherwise, you're just some idiot wasting their time. Best if you can talk to the shop foreman, forget the people in the office. Not alway, but usually.

I goto Doug at Northwest for my cable already, He just couldnt find any 2 inch, he even called up to a supplier in seattle to find some and no go. They let me dig through their scrap bin whenever I get a chance to go over there and I have a buncha 1 inch and larger. Heck I even Fell through their window not to long ago. Luckily all I got was a nice scar on my hip from it and not worse, my foot caught the top edge on the steps and forward I went into the window. But we all laughed about it next time I came in.
