    Default Dichroic Alchemy Tubing

    All I see on their website is drool inducing pictures. Is this stuff available? If so, where, and how many arms and legs does it cost?

    the dichro tubing i used wasn't worth it.


    i don't know who made it but the thing burned out like crazy and ended up looking terrible, maybe it was just a bad coating... who knows... again, i have no idea who made it, but i didn't like it. the coating is on the outside and you have to sleeve it anyway.

    i'll post images of what i got later... i still have the blank i made from it because i coudln't use it in anything.
    Thanks,

    Andrew

    I got some really nice stuff from them more than once, but yea its spendy like $60 for a 16" long by 25mm tube. I would call them to get pricing.

    Just get a piece of dichro on 2mm, heat non-coated side, taco it up and slide it into a tube.

    Or get that same dichro and wrap it around some 25 mm blue tube, coating side down. Sleeve it if you need to.

    Use DA or CBS as the Accucolor won't take much stretching.

    Keep in mind, this is not like tube pull stock. It only goes so far before it looks like junk.

    SAWstudioZ,

    You're right, that's some tube like I've never seen. That whole piece is a leap beyond.
