Does anyone know a decent source for 30 size aluminum tubing for skids? The stuff Tower sells appears to be too thin walled to be used effectively. And what is the average diameter, is it 5/16 or 8mm? Thanks in advance.

I'd take a look at the local home improvment store. I found what I was looking for at the H.D. for cheap.

What was my tag line? AMA 139721

Steel automotive brake line is what I used for skids and boom supports on my Raptor 30.Very little weight difference and steel is not prone to fatiquing.
