Thanks, Louie and Tom, Steve, George and Dick Teal. There's a chance that the Wisconsin fella who's helped Dick Teal and Ron Cubel may be able to help. I ordered the tubing today from New Jersey. Couldn't find a good source of .083 wall seamless, so I settled for welded. I will ask the fab guy to turn the seams down or inward. Louie, I will certainly look up Woolf Aircraft Inc. Never hurts to have more than one source! I appreciate the response! Ted

Thanks, Brian. Looks like Joel in Wisconsin will get the job done for us. It's great that he's very close to Charlie, and C.W. can just pick them up! I will keep Bergfelt in my resources as well! Thanks. TJ

Great, Jeff! One more resource! I've sent the PDF's to Joel C. in Wisconsin, and he'll get the job done. I appreciate all the good shops advanced by our friends in the REAR gang! Ted
