Lee,

I bought some 3" I.D. blue tube direct from Always Ready Rocketry:

https://www.alwaysreadyrocketry.com/

Better than cardboard IMHO.  I used to to make a payload bay & coupler for my dual-stage rocket project, joining two 3" cardboard models from LOC Precision.  The blue tube diameter is almost exactly the same as the LOC 3" cardboard and is much stronger.  I definitely recommend it over cardboard; it's easy to work with an only a little more expensive.

Also available from Apogee:

Hope this helps

Terry

Thanks
