anyone still selling 75mm vac stack?

[bigj402]

Need to find someone who is still selling vac stack pulled with 75mm and I don't want to order from golden or wag tubing cause I think it looks like shit when pulled down to the size I need.If anyone can help me out that would be awesome.

Don`t want to be a smart-ass, but why don`t you make it yourself...?

I will admit I ordered some GA tailor-made out of curiosity. It is great quality and everything and I use it for some stuff, but I still love the heat and precision involved in making your own pulls, not to talk about your own schemes! Plus you can use every tubing you want, my big ones are 60x5 and 85x5, small ones 29x5 and 55x5.

But I`m in Germany, so I bet you find somebody over there doing custom pulls for you. GA is the only available line-tubing over here and it is so costly (120€/kg) that we get kind of pushed into making it by ourselves:-))

I know you said you didn't want to order from WAG. but i have to tell you i like it tons better than golden gate. plus he takes custom color combos.


what size are you pulling down to that it looks bad?

I would also 2nd the pull your own if you can't find what you want. you can really get some crazy ass shit going if you want to.

Is chayes stil pulling tube? His stuff looked real nice in photos, but I never ordered any thought about it many times tho

Chayes is the funk shizzle real deal-- i can not forse myself to use up the last of the tubes i got from him--

perfect-razor straight best i've seen!

I think it looks fine pulled down small.. What sucks is having to keep it thick. But thats more of a problem with vacstack rather than the tube. I hate that inner layer of clear.

I hate that inner layer of clear.

Why? You're using full sticks of color in a vac stack. If your colors are fading out in a vac stack it sounds like your using poor quality color

Chris Hayes makes great tube, but the price on the golden gate is hard to beat and honestly I haven't seen any of the problems I hear about - but I know they do sell their seconds, so maybe people are just getting what they pay for and bitching because they don't have a clue.

haven't seen the Wag tube, but shit... make it yourself if it has to be perfectly up to your standards.

As for inner clear - that's how vac stacks work, there's no way to eliminate that inner clear core, but I am sure that all the people making it use heavy wall tube on the inside to bulk up weight, so if you do it yourself, use thin/standard wall and it wont be as much of an issue.


Also, GA sells 4mm rods of some colors, so use that in a smaller stack and get as many lines... just an idea.

Anyways.... make your own or take whats available - same as a restaurant

You can get rid of the clear inside, just replace it with colored tube. I have done some crazy vacstacks with color core with transperant colors, fumed rods, or dicro coated rods.

Just food for thought.

[Forche]

Very true..i made some with a black center and just some fumed rod.cheap and looks good, just a little more shocky.

i have some perfect one inch blue moon tube im about to vac stack w/ amber purple

[bigj402]

First off I don't have time to pull tubing I got work to do and second anything bigger than 75mm vac stacks looks horrible and the color looks washed out for some reason.I never have that problem when I work 75mm vac stacks.

i ordered ten pounds of that crappy goldengate tubing... i got some of the JANKIEST pieces of tubing along with some good looking pieces.. EVERY SINGLE PIECE of tubing had at least one rod of color in it that was full of air bubbles or had air trapped between the clear..

[hippi]

i say pull your own..its not hard.. and i can pull it down to 9mm with a 3mm wall
