How much does stainless steel cost? Per lb?

Question:How much should someone sell a 6 ft stainless steel counter? How about one with a sink?

Answers:
Sheet stainless steel is about $2.00 to $2.75 per lb. in the US right now for a 2B stainless steel without any special finish. The cost of a sink or counter is going to vary widely. The labor to fabricate it is going to be a lot higher than the material cost so the price per pound is not going to tell you much. In California a custom 6' counter would be somewhere between $1,200 and $3,000. A standard size single compartment sink would be about half of that.
