Replacement metal????

Just a little question about metal. I need to replace the bottom metal in a quikold cooler. Where do I get the metal, and what kind of metal can I use???

I'm not sure about what gauge of steel to use but the type I would probably use is galvanized to hamper corrosion.  I've had to replace metal before in other coke machines and I go to a local machine shop to get what I need.  Since I usually only need small pieces (but bigger than you can find in Lowe's or Home Depot) he only charges me $20 or so.

Hope this helps!
