Hello all.  I am a level one rocketeer living in Phoenix Arizona.  I
have personally built my launch equipment.  Two of my rockets are
built for a rail.  I am having trouble locating a rail for my launch
stand with out really getting it shipped from out of state.  If any
one has a good cheap location for I would gladely appreciate it.

McMaster.com.  Product 47065T122 or 47065T123.  It will ship but
McMaster is usually pretty reasonable when it comes to shipping charges.

8020 is the most common manufacturer of rails.  http://www.8020.net .
They have a "garage" sale on ebay
(http://stores.ebay.com/8020-Inc-Garage-Sale) where you can get some
good deals but they shipping is sometimes brutal.  They dealers local to

There is also a Copperstate dealer at I-17 and Bell, NE corner, just
west of the Wafflehouse. And a couple more around town I think.

Copperstate wanted me to pay for a full stick (20').  I ended up ordering
and paying the shipping for what I needed.  Best thing to do is buy shorter
sticks from the 8020 garage sale and put them together to make it as long as
you need.  Shipping is pretty cheap that way.

There is a place South of 10 about 40th ave.  I had to call and get the list
of dealers because at the time the website dealer list was way wrong.
