Mark:
Sorry I didn't notice this request. Try Pacific Metal
They have 6061-T6 round seameless drawn tube in 0.058"
wall for antenna elements and and extruded tube for
booms plus all other sorts of shapes. They will sell in
small quantities and I have had no problems with them.
Phone: 206-251-6100 (Seattle)
I use their Portland outlet.
