I need a source for wing tubes and sockets. I need 3/4" od x 48" long x .049 wall thickness wing tubes and the appropriate sockets/sleeves. Don't tell me TNT, they are non responsive. So I don't need them recommended or a testimonial on how good they are. Any other suppliers out there. I have searched until I'm searched out.
thanks

I have been ordering CF tubes found on ebay. I make sockets by applying mold release on the tube and wrapping it in fiberglass. Slide the socket off when the epoxy has cured and you are good to go.

I did the same thing as speed only with an aluminum tube.

Me 3...Lately, the last couple projects, the sockets I did were a glass balsa composite. Less glass weight was used and the balsa was 1/32" aircraft grade. Sockets were considerably lighter than a stock glass socket alone.
