	I talked with Curtis at [https://www.compositewarehouse.com/ Composite Warehouse] this morning about our desire to custom order 24mm Red Fiberglass tube cut to 2.66" lengths. He estimated that they could do this with a minimum order of 50 units. The price was very reasonable. As of Jan 23rd 2023 we have decided to add these standoffs as an option when ordering the SPORT or fiver/SPORT bundle. They will also be available for order as a stand-alone product, package of five.

#Our Education customers are not collecting spent motors and many do not even use D motors, which is what we recommend for our SPORT Launch Rack.
#We have incidentally been testing fiberglass standoffs with FLARE (our local NAR section) since 2018 and they have not burned in any significant manner.
