<DIV>Hi, fellow members;</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I'm in the process of finishing an 8" f/5 tube and
looking for a Canadian source for Kydex plastic - or something similar.</DIV>
<DIV>It comes in choice of colours and thinness - recommended by Dave
Kriege and Dennis DiCicco, </DIV>
<DIV>in their book The Dobsonian Telescope, for the ideal tube
covering (for sonotube).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Does anyone know of a Canadian source - say, within 50
mi of Hamilton? This is also used as interior designer wall covering.
</DIV>
<DIV>I've had no luck trying to contact retail & wholesale suppliers, -
unfortunately mostly in the US.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Grateful for any suggestions.</DIV>
<DIV>Eric Golding</DIV></BODY></HTML>
