Does anyone know a source for large heat shrinkable tubing?  I want to try
some on  some of the bends of 1 1/2 and 2 inch SCAT tube and cannot find a
source.  The largest that I have found is 1 inch diameter.

[Go to http://www.nyblimp.com/cs.htm.  They have 5/8", 1", 1.5", 2",
2.5", and 3" tubing available.  It's lightweight, clear, and shrinks
45% with heat.  Send the guy a $10 check and a list of sizes you want
along with a SASE and he'll send you 10 sample pieces 9" long.  Sounds
like a bargain to me, given the cost of the teeny stuff at the local
Radio Shack.  He also stocks some really neat solder-type inline connectors
called "Jiffy Pins"... gold plated contacts, look to be about 1/8" dia
and are used for high-current connections in electric-powered RC
models.  Don't kid yourself, some of this stuff for the RC business is
really top notch, I can see uses for these things already (like to plug
our rudder connections together... shrink the pins individually after
soldering, then shrink the mated pair together, then shrink the completed
bundle.)  Some slick stuff.
