Urgent help needed.
Hi guys, like the title says, I am in urgent need of some solid plastic/acrylic rod in 7mm diameter about 1m in length or any offcuts greater than 150mm in length.
These are needed to complete a 4-1 exhaust system I am scratch building for a TAMIYA 1/6th scale HONDA CB750-F kit I am in the process of constructing. Any help would be greatly appreciated guys, preferably in the UK if at all possible. Cheers. gpz900ra7.

Re: Urgent help needed.
Quickest UK option would be to find a retailer that would have it in stock. Evergreen's 9/32 round is pretty close to 7mm

Re: Urgent help needed.
Cheers for your reply, but it has to be solid not tube.
Thanks. gpz900ra7.

Re: Urgent help needed.
Solid in that size may be tougher to find, but if anyone knows where to find it, look up Scratchbuilt, I bet he can set you up with a UK source.
Did you consider using brass or aluminum round stock?
