So you have a 6.5 dia cardboard tube and you want to reinforce it but you cant wrap the outside in fiberglass, or anything else. Dont ask why, I have my reasons.
Anybody ever try reinforcing a tube by applying fiberglass to the INSIDE of the tube?
If so; how did you go about doing it?
Any other ideas as to how I might go about strengthening a lightweight cardboard tube, from the inside?
One idea I have is to build an internal frame wrapped around a solid 4" Blue Tube core with the 6.5 cardboard tube just going along for the ride.
This will be using a 38mm motor tube and up to J motors.
