May I be so bold as to ask where you are getting the best prices for steel? Especially rebar, welded wire, chicken wire, and expanded metal lath. Another forum member on another website reports one of the local (Big Island) concrete materials suppliers doubling their prices since being bought out by the Saudi/Bush juggernaut known as the Carlyle Group.
He says:
"They are selling a sheet of riblath for $14.45!!!!! I'm now bringing the same rib lath in from So. Cal. for $4.30 each (plus $1.14 for shipping to Hawaii)."
