So far I have found numerous sources for tubing on the Internet, but still not quite what I’m looking for.
Does anyone know of a source for telescopic tubing of around 1mm wall thickness?
I’m not too picky about the material, though I would prefer aluminum or a polymer of some sort.
Surely someone out there makes 1mm or 1/16" wall thickness tubing in telescopic incremental diameters.
I’ve been using copper pipe and fittings to make my whistle heads because they fit together almost as well as telescopic tubing, which is necessary for my design… but I’d really like to get away from copper because of the tarnish.
Any help in locating a supplier of such tubing would be greatly appreciated.
I haven’t ordered from these guys, but I have their catalogue and it is full of tons of wonderful stuff including telescopic tubing in Brass.
Best of luck!!
I always by brass tubing from Special Shapes http://www.specialshapes.com
