Does anybody know if there are companies making thin and small diameter tubes with carbon fibre, like fishing rods, but in production quantities and in a method that is not slow and expensive like laying the fibre mat and the resin. I also want to encapsulate a thin electrical contact in it that will go from end to end.

Thanks

Yes, thanks a lot. This is exactly the kind of thing I am looking for. Now I just need this company or another one that will act as a manufacturing contractor making things to my design.
 
I think it's a small company. I spoke to the owner Linas once. I'd not be surprised if he'd entertain that idea.
