Revolver Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 The real question is where can you get it heat treated so it doesn't snap straight away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Yep. There are loads of suppliers out there that can stock you a load of dedicated tubing, but finding treatment at a reasonable cost is a bitch... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam n Posted July 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 damn....I knew I shouldn't have read Alan sugars biography.....i'll ask the local ally specialist about the heat treatment mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Leech Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Think you might need to look into it a bit more before you go buying tubing me old chum . but just in case- http://www.aluminiumwarehouse.co.uk/ , probably the best on't tinterweb. Try looking locally, you'll usually come across somewhere nearby that will supply tubing . Cheers, Josh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
