I would be interested in maybe 5, but thinking of getting 10 to be safe, never know when we can get them again. at the Adelaide mini, if not enough people want them to make up the 100 lot then I would be willing to take what ever is left to make up the 100.


Also these are flexible by themselves?, don't need to use super heated sand to bend them?

From what I have read, PEX tubing has a 'memory' and when you heat it it goes back to the shape of the original extrusion, Therefore I'm not 100% sure that heat bending is achievable? Also when they cold bend it (for plumbing purposes) they use a former to keep the bend shape.
