View Full Version : Tubes! I need tubes!
mjlacey21 18-07-2005, 16:54 Big tubes!
I'm after tubes, big tubes, probably big brown tubes, the type of tubes that you store about 50 rolled up posters at a time. I don't know what to call them to search online have had little luck
AND I NEED TUBES!!!!!!!!
Ask you local carpet shop :thumbsup: you may need to saw them down though :thumbsup:
We got some of these from ebay.dont cost much ither. we was told that the co-op sells them but they was too small.so unless anyone els know were to get them from,i would look on ebay
and they called poster tubes,
Stationery Box at Meadowhall does them.
mjlacey21 18-07-2005, 17:00 Just had a look at ebay - I'm after the big drum like ones that you can put a bunch of posters in so I can take them to events - all the ones I found on ebay are for single posters...
My posters are extremely large too.... 60 inch x 40
Draggletail 18-07-2005, 17:01 Strix and spinny beat me to it on both counts :(

Carpet shop then, like Strix suggests - thick, wide long tubes :thumbsup:
That's why I didn't suggest any of the usual channels for proper drawing tubes ;)
The place next to stokes across from Wickes at the bottom of the moor used to have pretty big ones that you can put lots of posters in... can't remember what it's called.

Thanks!!

Pinders? The most expensive drawing office supplier known to man, but who stock everything?

Yeah, that's the one... I used to buy tubes there that hold a lot of A0 posters for about £3 each.

Don't forget to take a saw or something to cut 'em up. Probably won't fit in a car:)
