I don't think you will find any stock that fits without machining id & od. An easy job in a 12" lathe. 3" solid 6061 round bar is the place to start from ebay or your local rem store. 4pcs x 3" Thru bolt with 2x 1/4" SS bolts.

I'm rebuilding my 40m 4-sq verts and have some 15' lengths of 3" OD/ 2.75 ID tubing to use on the base end.?? And for the "stinger" end, I have some tapered elements off an old yagi that are 1.25" OD on the bottom of the 17' length.

Other than buying some concentric lengths of aluminum to step from the 1.25 OD stinger up to the 2.75 ID base tubing, any good ideas of an interposer that would take up some of the space?
