: What type of aluminum? I called Aircraft Spruce and they have a lot of types
: of aluminum.

: Sage

The aluminum is 6061-T6 tubing. Depending on where you live, it's normally
listed under "pipe" in the yellow pages. An alternative is to purchase
the tubing from George Dyson at "Dyson, Baidarka, and Company in Bellingham Wa.
(Tel - 360.734.9226) At $1.00 ft, his prices are hard to beat.

In addition to the 3/4" X .049 stringers, you will also need 5/8" X .049 for inserts.
