I recently moved into a two story house.  I also have a Cushcraft R7 that I
would like to mount as painlessly as possible to my roof.  I was thinking of
simply putting a mast into the ground, next to my house and attaching it at
the apex of my roof.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a good source of tubing.  Home Depot has
some plumbing piping and some yard fence poles, but they don't seem to be
strong enough.  I would really like to get some sections of large diameter
aluminum tubing.  I can't find a local source.

Do you have to mail-order this stuff?  I'm in the Cincinnati area.
