Hope you understand my position...once I began to think about shipping...I could see that I did not have the ability to get it to you safely... It is wrapped and in the barn...if you know of someone who can pick it up...
I do not know of anyone...Travis tells me that , and I think I told you. the only plant is in Ohio and they require 1000 lb order to run the 6 and 5 inch tubes.. Not sure about that..but a search of the web did not turn anything up...

Check with an irrigation company. They use 5 and 6 inch 6061T6 for their circle irrigation systems. The only problem with attempting to obtain a tube from them is the condition of the tube after it leaves the mill. They don't baby them the way we airplane builders do. They will be scratched and dented. If you could find one with minor flaws, could probably be polished out. I see a few specimens that have been saved and are still flying, although I don't think I would want one on my mkIII.
