Can someone point me in the right direction to find the 7/8" X .035 aluminum tube for making compression struts? The only tube I can find is square with sharp corners.
Thanks, Laz

I got it from Reeve Air Motive in the past. You can get the threaded inserts from Dakota Cub. Last time I purchased some they were $8.00 each. Crash

Thanks everyone.
I'll take a run over to Reeve's and then AS if no luck.
