Title: 20mm carbon tube
Post by: Graham Bridle on May 07, 2013, 08:15:17 AM: Anyone (preferably going to Weston) got a length (30cm -60cm) of 20mm outer diameter Carbon tube ? must be 20mm as it needs to fit snugly into something else.

I am attempting to build something !

I will look tonight. I would be surprised if I did not have something.

Else: http://www.woolmer.co.uk/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=3_58&zenid=dd9f7149fc64118bd1810f45fa09cfa2 (http://www.woolmer.co.uk/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=3_58&zenid=dd9f7149fc64118bd1810f45fa09cfa2)

What are you making? I was planning a similar sized stick to encourage the crew to hoist faster.

If I tell you what i am making, I'd have to shoot you !
