Sorry for the really dumb question from a KBBBS "lurker"... but what exactly do these ferrules look like? I assume they comprise a sleeve of some kind (SS, CF, other), but what else is needed?

Beyond a piece of tubing of the right size (friction fit OK?) What else is needed to fulfill the purpose?

thanks for your forbearance and many thanks for your unwitting assistance on this BBS

: Joe & All,
: Do any of you know what process Walt went through to make these ferrules?
: What weight & weave of fabric did he use? Fiberglass, carbon, or Kevlar?
: What pattern did he layup? How many layers? What dimensions (i.d., o.d, wall
: thickness, length)? Did he use a mold? What kind?

: I've been searching for websites that would have this kind of info. The
: closest I have come are model rocketry sites.

: I'd like to attempt a few of these before the R2K1 Rendezvous at Port
