Brass and styrene tubes shop ?

Post by wasabi »

Hi,

I am looking for a reliable online shop that sells both Plastruct styrene (not Evergreen) and brass tube.

Any idea ?

Cheers !

There is a shop run by a friend of mine that carries both:

For I know that I usually get my needed stuff there I don´t know other shops. Drop me a PM in case I could help ordering.

Thanks Thomas !
The website is really cool, I just registered. Delivery from Germany to France: 20 Euros, ouch. I will have to buy a few extra things to make it worth it :lol:

If you're looking for tubing, I'd also look into places selling Albion Alloy stuff. Their microtubing is the bee's knees.

I more and more get the impression that postage even inside Europe gets more and more expensive. Sometimes it gets ridiculous.
Maybe the "industry" tries to disable the modellers to trade among themselves? (Conspiracy Mode Off).

The shop I suggested does sell Albion Alloys.

There are two more shops I know who stock both plastic and metal. One is a classic modeling shop and the other is specialized in architecture modeling stuff. Though both want 15€ for shipping to france.

Do you have a local hardware store???
I get all my brass and aluminum tubing/rod from the LHWS...it's way closer and cheaper than the LHS.

Thank you guys for your answers.

I cannot find what I'm looking for at my LHS. I found an online shop in France but prices are indecent: 8E for a pack of 10 styrene tubes (abt twice the price :roll: ), but postage is cheaper than from Germany.
