I used aluminum tubing I cut to length with a tubing cutter. Darn near any hardware store will have both. Tubing cutters do a slick job, always
perfectly straight, and pretty cheap too. You can always borrow one from a neighbor. You could use metal pipe with a quarter inch (5mm) inside
diameter too. Adds a bit to the weight of things that are already fairly heavy strapped to your feet. I built a really nice pair but haven't had the
right conditions/balls to try them!
Good Luck.

I'm new to kiting and skating-blading and I just finished my offroad skates. I made the spacers out of aluminum.
I was curious to see if you made yours and how it turn out.
See the posting "New Skates" for a picture.
