Hi All, 

So all very new to this, but fancy giving this a go! I have watched quite a lot of videos on various different processes and techniques and from other similar projects. 

Current plan is...

1. Create custom jig from wood \ 8020 strut or such
2. Buy pre-made carbon tubing
3. Mitre and glue tubes together
4. Re-enforce joints with wet layup 

Couple of questions on the above...

- Is roll-wrap tubing available from the website suitable for bike frame building? 
- Is not does anyone know where to buy some, I have found one maybe 2 sites in the US and they are super expensive! 
- Is making you own tubing viable, given the required accuracy? 

Cheers,
Andy
