I designed a Tube Chuck in order to sand tubes faster/easier.
Tube Chuck Printables Link
Printables model description mentions everything you need to make use of the tube chuck.
Why did I make it? I'm glad you asked. I was doing my L3 project and wanted to fiberglass all of the body tubes. I also wanted fiberglassing the tubes to be an option going forward. So, I had to figure out a way to make the finishing faster and easier. After several iterations on the design, I eventually got to where it is now. It works great!
Video Link showing the tube chuck in use! This thing does work great! I will definitely be fiberglassing paper tubes again.
Bonus video link of my L3 project launch.
