Well I'm piecing together my fmic, but I need some 2.5" 6061 aluminum tubing to finish the project.
Where do you guys recommend getting something like that online?? I'm assuming some of you guys have had to buy it before.
I only need 2-ubends, and about 3' of straight tube.
the best price I've found is $42 for each ubend, and $10 a foot for the tubing.
Any info would be appreciated

there are also local metal suppliers that are most likely cheaper then online shops, + u have to pay for shipping for the online ones.
Look for a place called metal supermarket. It's a canadian metal supply shop, not sure about states, when in doubt just start calling around machine shops and ask them where to buy this stuff, they will point u into the right direction.
Btw there is also mcmaster.com
