Glass tubing
There is a good-looking package here http://www.sciencelab.com/page/S/PVAR/10615/10-2421
Unfortunately the people at sciencelab.com are unbelievably obtuse, and I cannot get more than a couple of monosyllabic replies from them ... nothing
nearly as useful as a shipping quote.
Any recommendations as to where I should shop? There don't seem to be any internet-enabled glass tubing suppliers in New Zealand.

Hi Paddywhacker, Follow the Trademe link below. The seller has 12mm OD pyrex tubing which seems good value. Let me know if you find another good
source as I may also be interested in buying tube inside NZ. I am after a smaller diameter tube -perhaps 6mm for gas delivery experiments but have
not looked beyond Trademe.
Cheers,

DON'T buy from Sciencelab! They'll screw you sooner or later.

Hello,
The people that make Neon signs use Soda glass if that is any good. They were happy to sell me glass once I was looking for it. I am not from NZ.

Thanks. crscientific have given good service, excellent communication and reasonable freight charge. I expect the glass tubing will be just fine,
too.

I haven't had any trouble with ScienceLab except they are weak on book keeping but so am I. I do most of my business with the majors and Pantry
Scientific who works at being competitive across the board. Please don't abuse him.

Best Source of Glass Tubing
What is the best source for cheap glass tubing? I tried a search but turned up nothing.

Really. What were your search terms, and what search engine did you
use?
