SR 71 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Look on ebay for the carbon tube and make your own outer tube from fibre glass, thats how i do mine Ask the supplier of the tube to cut it to the length you want Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callsign Tarnish Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I use Easy Composites for the tube and make the outer as above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Flyer Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I have used Aluminium Warehouse quite a bit . Very cheap and custom cut to length required. When I last ordered I also ordered other bits like aluminium angles to use to make building jigs and long squared sections to usd as clamps / straight edges etc. Here is the link **LINK** sorry didn’t see whether u specified carbon . Anyway it might be useful for some Edited By Tim Flyer on 29/04/2020 15:28:47 Edited By Tim Flyer on 29/04/2020 15:30:08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Walby Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 +1 for Easy Composites for fast service Only note, some of the tubes ID's have a seam and hence another carbon tube will not slide inside. Tried all sorts of ways to clean the inside out, but failed so far! Anyone tried Bucks Composites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
