(Aluminum?) Sprinkler Pipe in Southern California
 
Hello all, I found this ad on an old tractor/farm classified ad section.
Size of pipe is not mentioned, but I think this stuff is normally 3" or so.
Could be a great (cheap) deal for a boom for your next HF beam.

I made a free standing 40 meter vertical out of two pieces of that pipe in
1960. The stuff I used was only 20 ft long, but it was 4 inches diameter as
I remember.

You could fabricate a nice boom with a few 20 foot lengths of that pipe.
