I'd like a certain type of shop trash can.  I haven't found it out there on the interwebs, so I figured I'd whip up some designs in solidworks and go scrounging for some sheets of stainless steel so I can make my own.

I'd like something like this for the corners, but I'm having a hard time finding it out there.  Thicker gauge steel would be ok

Stainless stair molding is similar and give you something to bolt the sides to.

Probably a long shot, but try to find a door off a junk stainless refrigerator. The corners are often shaped like that.  Or possibly a shower grab bar cut in half lengthwise.  New stainless is stupid expensive, but if you have a source for used/junk kitchen or bath accessories you can usually find something suitable.  Or maybe some straight sections of stainless exhaust pipe?

Mr_Asa,

You  might take a look at this site:    https://www.stainlesssupply.com/corner-guards/docs/corner-guards.php?sc1=36

They have up to 14ga and a variety of widths/lengths and other options. Might not be as rounded as you are looking for , but you might find something that works.

You'll need to log in to post.
