[TowerTalk] 2 inch Chrome Moly mast needed

[w6rgs at cox.net]

Fred,
We have a regional supplier here in the Southwest called Industrial 
Metal Supply.
I've bought from them several times in the past. 
https://www.industrialmetalsupply.com/Products/chromoly-4130-dom-tubing
Their website shows that they sell 4130 tubing and it might be worth 
your time to contact them.

Additionally, IMS says they get their 4130 from Plymouth Tube in 
Streator, IL.  Maybe avoid the middle man and get it from the 
manufacturer?  Certainly a shorter distance for delivery.
