How much interest is there in Supra booms? I just made one, tho with 10
year old epoxy, etc., but I've established to my satisfaction that I can
probably do it. This one was about 70 grams at 36 inch length, I can
make longer. Later ones will probably weigh a tad more than 70g, maybe
75 or so, but then I may get better at compressing them, too. My mandrel
goes from about .86" to about .47" or so, in 46". Anyway, I might make
some of these. No way can I match tailboom.com's price, so if those come
back I'll drop out. Currently using 3 layers 9 oz. uni carbon tapering
to 1 layer, with 1.4 oz bias glass. Can consider other layups, or even
smaller booms as I have a collection of golf club shafts, fish poles,
etc. At this point I'm just testing to see how much interest there is.

late last night.)
