So, Im looking for a good store to buy plasticard tubes from, found a store in the UK with all the tube sizes and different shapes (like square/rectangle ones) but shipping was stupid >.<

anyone know? looking to make some ork kannons and shootas/big shootas

Do you have any modeling/train shops in your area? they all carry plasticard tubes and sheets (and specialty products) in my area.

not really, closest is over an hour drive one way and the selection is very little

My god man, where in canada do you live that thiz is the case???

deseronto ontario

and yeah, all the listed stores are even farther away from me than my "local" store XD

guess gf9 is my answer

If you have any hardware store's in you area,why not use PVC pipe.Hell of allot cheaper .Made 16 klla kans that way.Smaller tubes can be made out of doll rod soak them down with super glue sand then soak again.Once primed can pass for plastic tube.
