Has anyone tried the new 27/64" 10" tubes from Wood-N-Whimsies found HERE I ordered a couple packages they told me they fit the Sierra style kits. The long tubes would be a huge help for making production blanks. I spent a lot of time getting a process to work and got some blanks done but to find out there not a nice tight press on fit. Kind of a hand push on fit.
So has any one tried them yet and did you have any issues. I tried 2 kits I had on hand a Sierra Vista from Berea and a Sierra Elegant Beauty. I have always used tubes from Berea. Boy a 10" long tube would solve a lot of problems for me. I have never tried a PSI Sierra style kit such as a Gatsby but they should take the same tube. I measured the tube and found my tubes from Berea have about .391 ID and the 10" tubes from WnW about .393 about .002 larger.
Also any body know if there is another supplier of the long tubes. This is a bummer for me I was excited about the long tubes. Any way I will call Wood-N-Whimsies this week to find out what they say. Maybe there's a bad batch I got 5 packages to start.
Thanks all
