[Boatanchors] Crystal sets

[hwhall at compuserve.com]

 The packing tape I buy at Ace Hardware have nice heavy cardboard cores about 3 inches diameter. Sometimes carpet stores have heavy duty cores for their rolls, and my wife gets some heavy cardboard tubes that are cores for brown packing paper. Thicker paper might be slightly detrimental to high Q coils but they are more physically stable than toilet paper rolls, etc.

There is always the core of many types of kitchen wraps, foil, Saran, etc.    
Cut to size.
