[TowerTalk] findiing aluminum tubing

Joe,

Check out www.aircraftspruce.com

This is the web site for Aircraft Spruceand Supply Co., the mother lode for amateur aircraft builders.   Go to the tubing and metals section. They have several alloys and several wall thicknesses.

>I know that I have tried this before here but I still don't have a fix. I need some 5/8 inch o.d aluminum tubing in the 7 1/2 foot lengths range. I cannot find it anywhere in the northeast Florida/southeast Georgia area (which I find hard to believe in the first place). Trying to get it shipped doesn't seem do able because the shipping charges far exceed the cost of the aluminum ( ups wont ship anything over 6 feet long). Does anyone have a suggestion? I want to fix these  Telrex 6m624's to get them in the air before the summer season gets here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Joe N4JBK.
