Looking great.
I considered a full aluminum mast (albeit without the aluminum core) but I decided that it was probably much too expensive for my budget. Especially since I don't own a lathe capable of getting the pieces to the precise size.
Of course, my budget is currently precisely $0, so everything fits that description at the moment. Ah well, nobody ever claimed this was a cheap hobby.
