Just make them. it only takes about ten minutes. What I do is wrap my Alum. or carbon fiber wing tube with one layer of wax paper usiing a few small pieces of scotch tape to hold the wax paper on . Then I spray the wax paper with 3m 77 spray glue lightly. Next wrap it with one layer of fiberglass cloth, the 3m is tacky and hold it very smooth. You can now coat with resin , just enough to wet the cloth. Let dry and I slide out with one finger. Produces a very light wing tube.
