Default Soft Glass Tubing? Who carries it?

Has anyone here tried to use soft glass tube either 96 or 104? At frantz there is seeded 104 but I want clear. I really don't want to get taken over with boro. I am looking for a supplier and tips from those that have used it.

Neon tubing is compatible with Bullseye and the Kugler/Reichebach frits, too.

Lynda, Where can I get it for a good price? How heavy should it be for making ornaments?

Fanny, The seeded glass has alot of mini bubbles in it. It's really shocky but pretty. You need to pre-heat it!

Thanks! I have the Pleated Vessel Tut, and it calls for tubing. I can finally attempt it now!

I had gotten some from Acmegirl (here at LE) last year for ornaments. I haven't sourced a local supplier yet. I'm pretty sure you want to get the leaded clear, though.

Do you have any local neon shops?
