The following is the text copied from a forwarded e-mail circulated in the
COZY group:

<<<McMaster Carr has teflon spaghetti tubing 0.090 O.D. X 0.066 I.D for
approximately $0.18/ foot minimum 5' lengths. Part number 5335K17 Page
45 Catalog 103. Run a piece of 1/16 stainless steel TIG wire through it
(I used 420 but 300 series should be okay also) and volia - teflon
covered hinge pins. McMaster Carr accepts MC, VISA, AE, and they have a
web site also.  TIG wire? Try the local welding shops & supply houses -
get a pound and share the extra (and there will be a bunch) with your
flying buddies.

Just trying to reduce the cost of building & flying.
