[TowerTalk] aluminium tubing source

[David Robbins]

I have used Marmon-Keystone here several times when I needed full length
pieces for repair and upgrade of antennas.  They have (or at least used to)
do free delivery, or you could go and pickup at their warehouses.  They
advertise cutting, drilling, and swaging services though I have never used
those.  They have also added carbon fiber tubing.

DX Engineering stocks telescoping tubing in many sizes at very good prices,
but mostly limited to 3' and  6' lengths.  I've been considering their 80m
vertical kits.  It's pretty hard to beat their prices with DIY sourced
aluminum.  Then there is some engineering needed for DIY designs.

On Line Metals  onlinemetals.com is stocking some telescoping wall
thicknesses (0.058" but nothing so far in 0.120") and I have found full
lengths are available on order, which DXE couldn't supply. Lucky here, it's
a short drive to the Seattle service center, but I see they are also in
Atlanta and other US cities.
