All,

One of my co-workers has done some work with fiberglass.  After mentioning
our shooting tube, he gave the following suggestion:


1) carve the shape that you want out of a block of styrofoam.

2) sand styrofoam smooth

3) coat styrofoam with paint or light plaster - the paint has to be
styrofoam friendly

4) apply your fiberglass

5) let dry

6) use gasoline or paint thinner to chemically remove styrofoam from
center.

7) clean and sand inside if tube

8) rock and roll



What do you think?
