  • At any rate, the 2 inch pipe Lucky uses is similar size to the skinny grey ABS we have.

  • Yo they're done. I'll place an order asap but would like to get at least a couple more in to cut costs.

  • skinny pipe: 1.5" inside
    fat pipe: 2" inside

    They (ours and Lucky's) have to be the same, don't they? Every piece of pipe i've ever had has been those diameters.

  • Dunno, he said outer diameter. You have one, measure it...

  • Inside diameter changes depending on the class. Outside diameter stays the same (so you can use the same fittings for all classes for a given size).

  • fact of the day:

    ABS is used to make lego bricks, and is also ground down as the colourant in tattoo inks.

  • Inside diameter changes depending on the class. Outside diameter stays the same (so you can use the same fittings for all classes for a given size).

    Yep, but could that be dependent on material? All the talk above is about ABS, the heads Lucky is making now is HDPE, similiar to the water and gas pipe we use.

    Gabes, that's amazing that it's used in tattoo inks. I've known that some tattoo inks are similiar to auto paint, using the same pigments but plastic? Polo mallet plastic? That's creepy.

  • That's not creepy. It's awesome.

  • but would like to get at least a couple more in to cut costs.

    I'll take one if I'm not too late Mike?

  • my arm will have a whole head's worth of ABS in it. Then I can polymorph into a mallet. great.

  • I'll take one if I'm not too late Mike?

    Not too late, what size?

  • Chan - 2x60mm 5.5" (one single cap and one double cap)

    Mike, just to confirm is this the same inside diameter size as the standard yellow abs stuff we have in Manc?

    If so, I'll take one more and can i have all 3 single capped so i can still ball joint.

    so new order is:

    Chan - 3x60mm 5.5" (all single cap)

    Can paypal you the funds asap.

    I can't say it's the same but the 60mm is similiar to the blue pipe and the yellow pipe we use. You can ball joint with it...

    (image is double cap, singles are the same length)

  • 60mm, 5.5" long, double please.

  • ;735132'] You can ball joint with it...

    Cool, then I'll take 3 single capped then. Nice one for sorting it all out, let me know when you need the cash.

  • if its not too late to get in, could i order 1x 60mm 5.5 single cap please :)

  • Sorted the new list:

    Lucky Heads HDPE

    Mike - 1x60mm 5.5" single cap
    Buffalo Bill - 3x60mm 5.5"double cap
    otters - 2 x (2" X 5.5") both with 2 caps (50mm)
    Chan - 3 x 60mm 5.5" (all single cap)
    dt - 2x60mm 5.5" double cap
    dante - 1x60mm 5.5" single cap
    Khorn - one: 2"x5.5 double cap
    Jono Marshall - 1x60mm 5.5" double cap
    Mr Lemon - 1x60 5.5" single cap

  • Alright, the Parisians have beat us to the singles in this batch. They've ordered 26 of them!
    Lucky is asking them nicely if they'll swap some singles for doubles to fulfill our order, if they won't then he's going to try to get a second batch done around the 15th June so we have until then to top up the order, making them potentially cheaper for us. Right now it's around £15/head. Last time the postage on 10 heads was $26 - $2.60 each so hopefully we can get that down at least a dollar a head.

  • Cheaper is good, and I'm in no rush for them.

  • ;734834']Dunno, he said outer diameter. You have one, measure it...

    Measured a Lucky fat ABS pipe. 2" inside diameter.

  • So the original order is:
    6- 60mm X 5.5" singles
    6- 60mm X 5.5" doubles
    3- 50mm X 5.5" doubles

    Lucky can do this:
    4- 60 X 5.5 singles
    2- 60 X 6 singles
    6- 60 X 5.5 doubles
    3- 50 X 5.5 doubles

    So if anybody who ordered a 5.5 inch, single capped head would swap their order for a 6 inch, single capped head, we could go ahead with this. He's not sure when the next batch will come out. They will be £12 a head.

  • I'll swap one of mine if you want, half an inch wont make much difference. But i would still like 2 of the 5.5" single caps

  • Thanks, anybody else?

  • I'll swap one more, how many others do we need to swap now?
