When going to install the MB-40 in the Tucker's grid tank compartment, I discovered I am almost out of bakelite 1/4" shaft stock. That was annoying. Who sells lengths of durable 1/4" plastic or other non-conductive shafting? I need about 2FT of it.

Also need to stock up on flexible and/or universal couplings, insulated and non-insulated, as well as panel bushings, if anyone knows where to find those. There will necessarily be some misalignment in one maybe two directions.

HOme Cheapo driveway markers.  Like $2 for 4ft. 0.250 inch fiberglass.

US Plastics has teflon, delrin or G10 and many others. They are in Lima, OH . Do a google. Have lots of sheets and tubes also.

I now have a couple of these fine driveway markers, eerrrrrr, non-conducting shafts in the car.  Thanks for the tip!
