I haven't been able to find a 2.875" OD body tube, but I'm looking for one for a scale MPR/HPR project I'm thinking of doing.

Does anybody know of a supplier of such a body tube?

Thanks!
Jim

Launching is Optional... Landing? That Depends on Trees.

You will probably have to roll your own. The minimum order requirement of any of the commercial tube manufacturers (1000 pieces, IIRC) would be a major strain on an individual's finances.

Series 275 tubing from Semroc is 2.840" OD. Is that close enough?

Give a man a rocket and he will fly for a day; teach him to build and he will spend the rest of his days sanding...

Great idea. Some wraps of paper, or better yet, fiberglass, will provide a really tough tube that can be brought up to the desired diameter.

What scale model are you replicating?

Just curious.
