Model Forum / General / Rockets / February 2005HELP! I need large diameter Body Tubes!
Hello, I am researching an exhibit project that a client of mine is proposing and I need some help finding some of the materials required. The project is a 1/24 scale Saturn V rocket. This would be for an exhibit and NOT a flying model. However, I was planning on constructing it much like I would a flying rocket. At that scale, the diameter of the 1st and 2nd stage would be about 16.5" inches. Does anyone know who makes a tube this size? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

You can't find these at your local Home Depot, but Concrete Suppliers and some rental places that sell concrete can get them. Brian Elfert > 16" Sonotubes if it isn't flying.

Layne Rossi snip It depends on the region. Lowe's and Home Depot both sell sonotubes here. Randy Usually they only sell the sizes up through 12". -- David > snip > > It depends on the region.
