Not square but large sizes.

I'm considering building a 6m LFA beam (there are some nice plans on http://www.g0ksc.co.uk as well as some Youtube videos showing construction at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2ajOTwvx4Q

Looks like the antenna can be built for about $150 or so.  I've found most of the parts I need, with the exception of 1 1/2 inch square aluminum tubing for the boom.  Home Depot and Lowe's sell 1 inch square tubing in 8-foot lengths, but nothing larger, and I need a longer length anyhow.

Anyone know of a local supplier who sells this stuff?

 

Roger
