buy on ebay, short money

[trevier]

If you can get your hands on some iv kits they work pretty good,medical stores might have the tubing sold seperately,matt

Go to Homies and buy the spline that secures screen material into the door and window frames. It comes in a box and simply pulls out. Snip it to length..........it's cheap!

ok here is where i found it to be the cheapest . E bay is too expensive. They probably buy it here and re sell it on e bay. The clear vinyl tubing. The .093 is the one they screw you on E bay for.
you want the .093 ID and maybe the .062 ID for small stuff but the .093 is what you will use for 80% of your applications. The item #'s are on the link below. I bought a whole crap load in a big spool, like 700 ft for 40 bucks which is like 6 cents a foot. This was in like early 07. The .062 ID is even cheaper. I resold a lot of it to fellow members for cheap $$$ and recouped my $$$ and I still got a lifetime of stuff left over. I am not sure how much you have to buy but you can call them and ask. Maybe do a big group buy. Call them and ask.

Yeah thats weird it worked before when I posted it. I can't even go to their web site ark-plas.com. WTF. Did they go out of business in the last 2 hours? Try again tomorrow I guess. Here is the phone # anyway as that is really all you need as I don't think you can order from the web site anyway.

I bought a bunch of this years ago .. .12 cents a foot for over 100 ft .. More than Pauls source but still cheap if Pauls falls thru

[ProfessorM]

Jeez Ed did you just type all that. There is no mention of using it for fishing lures though.

Good deal also in case my source makes you buy some large quantity that you don't want.

I've graduated to Copy and Paste Paul .. still a 2 finger typer .. 1.20 for 10' .. I can vouch for this stuff .. I've gotten plugs with that mini black tubing on the hooks ,, the stuff melts and gets all over the plug ,, makes a mess . Oh ... and I've put it on hooks 1/0 - 5/0

300 feet $6.00 you can't beat it and it fits all size hooks from small to large and is fluted on the outside for and easy grip to twist on or off.

And for some reason it is almost impossible to get the barb stuck when trying to back the tube off the hook if you twist while removing. Everything else seems to involve a wrestling match to get it off.

It comes in several diameters. I get the big stuff - .185"/4.7mm.
