Netters I found something that I can use for the lower half of my comm dipole. I checked numerous archery and hobby shops and no one carries fiberglas arrow shafts anymore, only graphite or carbon fiber. Wicks showed it in their 2009 catalog, but have since dropped it from their inventory. But I found that Wiremold makes a plastic version of their surface mounted conduit system called Cordmate. Has approx a 3/8" ID with a wall thickness of about 0.030" and snaps closed length-wise making it easy to install the copper foil. Looks like it could also be used as a wire loom through the cockpit area, keeping things neat. Found it at Home Depot's electrical dept at less than $5 for a 5' stick. Hopefully, this might be helpful to other builders.
