Help!
Need Rubber Band

I picked up an awesome Crack Yak at Joe Nall and had it built by a professional Yak builder and I love it but unfortunately due to my lousy flying I am out of rubber bands that hold the prop on.

Can anyone tell me where I might order some?

Thanks, Spats

These are the best I have found. They last a long time and work perfectly.

They don't use rubber "O" rings from the hardware store?

Surgical tubing works great. Won't pop like an o ring. A piece of tubing off a slingshot is the same thing. You can find replacement tubing for those in almost any store that sells sporting goods. Just cut off a piece whenever you need it. It'll last you forever.

I had a bunch of O rings but couldn't get one to stretch or it was way to thick.

That's perfect. A foot of surgical tubing will be enough to last you and all your friends a long time.

Try the local Lowes or Home Depot in the water hose / tubing area. About a dollar per foot.

LOL I stopped by the medical supply place on my way home today. Two feet should last me and everyone at Nall next year and years to come.
