Supposedly it’s not a problem to get in the Detroit area but in Ohio you might have to order it from Ryerson and be prepared to pay a lot then . Very doubtful that a local supplier would have it unless some local big business uses it. Big business usually buys sheet metal in coils. ~ John Buchtenkirch

I don't mess with steel sheet so know little about it. I mess with Al. But, I do buy lots of steel alloy bar for my day job.
Have you tried Alro? They have a location in Columbus. They do have an online store. I searched through it and come up with 19GA in ASTM 1008 CR AKDQ (Alum Killed Drawing Quality). If that type processing works for you, they show 19GA (.041") 4' X 8' sheets available online at $109per @ 1 pc qty and $75 per @ 2 pc quantity. I have found they will usually move it between their locations for no charge and you might pick up. Taxes would apply as you are in state. A call would be worthwhile as you may find a remnant (a drop as known in the steel buying trade) if you do not need much. You can shop their online store for drops. I see there is a 4'X4' in Pottersville MI @ $72 if bought alone. As mentioned, They may be able to do inter-branch shipping for no charge especially if delivery time is not important. It is important to remember, these places really start dropping price as weight purchased goes up. The more the merrier. The 10 footer sheets get even cheaper.

http://www.centralsteel.com/ They have 5 sales centers, including one in Cincinnati.

I have dealt several times over the years with their Milwaukee sales office, good people. I also bought DQ steel sheet from them, they stock it at reasonable prices.

There is a minimum order, but their sales staff is so helpful that once I saved a lot by increasing my poundage just a bit at their prompting, therefor putting me into a better $/pound bracket. As stated above, like a lot of commodities, the more you buy, the less you pay per unit. They loaded sheet onto my open trailer from an overhead crane. If you can't pick up, crating and freight will be the wild card for costing.

I contacted the Cinci office for a quote for 2 pcs 48" x 120". It came to $1.68 a pound or $118.59 per sheet. This quite a bit more that I pay for 18ga at $60.00/sheet (4 x 100).

I buy 19ga from Alro all the time. They are a bit pricey but the service and selection are hard to beat.
