Again off topic
I work in a company that welds up air frames.The fuselage cages are all 4130 chrome-molly steel tubing.
Our supplier for the tubing is Charles Vogelsong of The Dillsburg Aeroplane Works in Dillsburg PA.He is the one supplier of 4130 drawn tubing in the USA.
He sells to all the dealers,Nascar ,Government etc.
He told me that all the 4130 tubing is now from China.
This is so hard to believe.
