If you were in the southwest I would suggest Industrial Metal Supply. Look for
someone like them near you. I would also consider .12" wall steel over aluminum.
IMS is great, I was just there a couple of hours ago. I needed a length of 3'
OD steel to install a DX Engineering pivot base for a vertical I'm building. I
wanted a seven foot length. They didn't bat an eye or tell me that I had to buy
the whole 20', they just chopped it off and sold it to me.

I'm in need of a 2 in OD mast pipe for my Gen Pole . I was looking at EMT but
I see the wall thickness is .065 . I will be lifting 115LB's , I will have a
pulley at the bottom of the tower so the rope will be pulling striate down ..
I'm not sure if EMT is strong enough for this job ? Anyone have a
recommendation , something better then EMT . 2 inch OD 1/8 wall aluminum in a
10ft length is hard to find .
Thanks Ed N5DG
