Trying to find a source for this to try the polyester casting described in the last Rodmaker. Any help? Thanks!

If you can't find it in a local hobby and craft store try www.onlinemetals.com or www.smallparts.com

David, Mark is correct a lot of the specialty hobby stores carry it. Especially the ones that lean more toward items like remote controlled airplanes. I have also bought it at the larger Ace Hardware stores. The brand I buy is K & S Engineering out of Chicago.

The brass tubing works very well, I use it on some of my encapsulated grips. The size has to a little oversize as you cannot ream the brass larger like you can the PCV pipe. Jesse
