Anyone using latex tubes?

[BT Humble]

I need a couple of dead ones for an (*ahem*) ballistics experiment.

I know they're inexpensive, but I just can't bring myself to cut up a
new one. I'm happy to pay postage/packing to Canberra.

Thanks.

Funny you ask. I have one with a hole in it and need an old one to
patch it!@ I'd offer you the one with the hole but am hoping I can get
it fixed rather than throw it away. So, sorry not this time. I'm in
Canberra too, so the postage would have been nil!

It's more of a durability issue mate, even the "Roughriders" aren't
tough enough for me!

Four years already? How time flies. Tell me what colour they were and I'll
see if I can find them.

Yeah, sorry, got your e-mail and replied. I hadn't checked e-mail for
a few days.

I never knew that occy straps existed, when I were a lad.

None of the ones that I own have sufficient stretch in them though, I
might have to wander through a few shops testing their occy straps...
