Phil 9 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I need some solid tube that 2mm push rod will fit through with little slop. I think an internal diameter of 2.5mm would be ideal it is to make a bolt on tail so light weight would be advantage I have found some carbon fibre tube online but the postage seems to be astronomical Can anyone suggest anything that cost less than £20 for some short (10cm) lengths of solid tubing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon barr Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Depending on the loads that are expected on it, would a Biro pen inner do...? Or some snake inner...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
