Flexible plastic tubing for netting
« on: August 16, 2015, 13:51 »
Quick question. Where would I get some of this amazing flexible tubing to make netting hoops? Can't do a Gurgle search - not entirely sure what it's actually called.  ::)

It's 25mm blue water pipe.  Toolstation do it quite cheaply, or search on e-bay.

If you have a building site locally, be cheeky! They usually have some spare knocking around :D

wow, you are right - after checking the price (£28.41p incl VAT for 50m), I found a local branch near where I work.  Thanks for that tip  :D

I had a full wooden spool of green plastic tube dumped on me about 10 years ago.  There must have been about 500 yards of the stuff.  It is about 15mm and I have never found pipe fittings for it, I think it is for fibre optic cable.

If anyone around South Yorkshire would like some I would be happy to oblige.  I don't know whether there is some way of secure communication with this site being new and challenged in the sight department.

The offer is no problem; I have used some and a couple of friends have had some, but there is still an awful lot left.

I have found the messages, thank you.  Every web page is different and sometimes I have difficulty finding my way about.
