It for use in a leadpipe. the person I want to make it only has 70/30 brass and I am not going to pay for a hand made leadpipe that is going to rot in 20-30 years just not going to do it! i would sooner shoot myself in the foot!JK not literally!
It needs to be the following dimension: .025-.029
thickness .500 OD. That is darn close to inside slide tubing but so far all Ic an find is .024 and that is in brass which is not what I want. Nickel or Copper will do!
Thanks for any help helping me find some stock!

Capt'n, look through the Allied catalog and you should find what you need. Perhaps Allied Supply could draw the pipes for you in nickel on one of the mandrels they use. I have a source that makes my pipes in sterling silver [not cheap] and could get those for you. Based on a Bach 25 pipe with my venturi and length, cost is $150 each w/o receivers.
