After reading another thread about deployment failures, I think I want to stretch my standard sized Cosmic Cobra before it's first launch. Where the heck can I buy a piece of BT-56 body tube and a coupler for it? Estes sells BT-56 cones, but I don't see any tubes or couplers available on their site. Semroc and BMS also seem to be a bust. Any suggestions?

Estes BT-56 is equivalent to Semroc (Centuri) ST-13:
