I have not had the time to do an extensive search
on the web, so I thought I'd ask here.

Anyone know of a vendor who sells streamlined
steel tube? The one I found in Detroit is out of
the size I need.

advTHANKSance

Dillsburg Aero has a large selection of 4130 tubing, standard and streamline. 717-432-4589. They have a larger selection than the standard aircraft supply stores.

I second Dillsburgh - a couple of years ago the primary manufacturer of streamlined tubing quit the business and everyone panicked. There isn't a huge market for it. Someone bought the dies and we seem to have a good supply nowadays.
