<p>Hey Patrick,</p>
<p>I built my mast, after discussions with my rigger, of 150mm x 3mm walls using two lengths. Also made it a metre higher to give better clearance in the cock pit as well as a tapering the top 1200mm.</p>

<p>My mast is actually an aluminum lamp post/flag pole. I don't know the exact dimensions, but I could measure it for you. You may want to extend your materials search to lamp post/flag pole suppliers.</p>

<p>Regarding wood selection I found a Co. in Phuket which has Bimtangor wood which traditionaly was used for mast and spars in SEA. This is the website <a href="http://phuketdir.com/pktsiamnanaphan/">http://phuketdir.com/pktsiamnanaphan/</a> . Also interesting for wood is Henoki wood (japonese cypress) found in Thaialnd available in 6m legths at <a href="http://www.spk-sawmill.com/customize-%E0%B9%84%E0%B8%A1%E0%B9%89%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%B7%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%AD%E0%B9%88%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%99-107866-1.html">http://www.spk-sawmill.com/customize-ไม้เนื้ออ่อน-107866-1.html</a> . it is supposed to same charicteristics as Port Oxford Ceader wich is excellent wood for boatbuilding.</p>

<p>you can buy 5 inch dia ( OD) alu pipe in 6 meter lengths . Thickness is 2,5 or 3 mm , I forgot. </p>
<p>You'd need to buy 2 lengths which costs about 5000 baht. Here in Phuket . </p>
<p>Any decent metal shop in Thailand should have it or be able to order it . </p>
