Looking for a 3 1/2 inch turbine tube for my 1/8 scale hydro. Want a light weight one either carbon fiber or fiberglass. Thanks for any help. Rich
 
I can probably make you one. I dont think anyone is making them out of fiberglass. Are you looking for 3.5 OD? That seems a little large for an 1/8. How long do you need it. What is your time frame?

If I had a mold right now yes. So no it is not. I have to find a suitable conduit to use for a mold. I also am heading to nats soon. Still packing my boats. Leaving in like 3 weeks time.

Yes I need 3.5 OD and 10 " long. Is 2 weeks reasonable. Thank you for the help
Is this turbine tube straight?
IE: 3.5 @ inlet & outlet?
If so, very easy to make one yourself.
Get a piece of PVC the correct diameter.
Wrap in wax paper.
Use 1/64" ply, wrapped around the PVC. Super glue the joint.
Lay some light F/G cloth around it with epoxy.
Paint or go to a vinyl shop & get some vinyl of correct color.
