Re: Canadian Source for 8mm carbon tube???
Sure, I use 8mm as a spar for my EasyStar, comes in 1m length. In Toronto,
Hobby Hobby has it, Pinnacle hobbies has it and Advance Hobbies on HW7 has it usually in stock . They also carry 10mm I use for wing tubes for Radian, Easy Glider Pro.

Re: Canadian Source for 8mm carbon tube???
Thanks everyone. BFCarbon is a little expensive for this project. I like HK price but the reviews tell the story, thin wall,bent,and broken by the time it gets here. Too bad price was right. Mike I never thought of arrow shaft I will swing by wolfs den next week and check sizes.

Ddruck. Do you know the part number or manufacturer from Hobby Hobby? I could not find it on there website?
