Can anyone out there help me out? I need tubes for a Victorian twist. I have the components just not the tubes...

Time is of the essence.

Thank you :)

I keep some long 3/8 tubes on hand for some of my castings and cut them with a bandsaw and true-up to the proper length using a barrel trimmer. Let me know if you do not find any closer or do not have some that you can cut to length yourself.

I have 3/8 tube in 10 in lengths, can you cut it to length? I could drop a short length in mail to you. Unfortunately even mailed tomorrow, it wont get to you until Monday.

If your in a hurry you could shorten the tubes from a couple bolt action pens, then replace those pretty easily.

Do you have a Woodcraft nearby? Victorian tubes are 1.34. A Bolt Action Mini tube is 1.38. Wood craft carries bolt action mini replacement tubes.

.08" shouldn't make a difference.

Most hobby tubes by K& S are to thick inside to work with the kits we make. Pen kit tubes are much thinner walled.
