Status: offline 		What is the best way to join the ends of CF tubing? I would like to join two pieces at an angle to support the the wings on my parkflyer.

In the past, I have used a bent piece of aluminum tubing that slip fit the outside diameter of fiberglass rods. The entire assembly was then epoxied together.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Dave
