Is this stuff easy to bend for arches etc ? (I have the tube from the last GB still unbend as its difficult to get it looking nice)
If so ill take 10 (VIC mini)

Hi Alan,

A couple of years ago , I went to the US and brought some back in my luggage .
It balanced out the wife's clothes and shoes shopping :)

But I'll take 5 lengths to keep as am sure someone will post something nice later in the year.

Did you get lengths or rolls and if they were lengths how did you go shipping them?
As you appear to be 1 of the few Aussies with access to some PEX how does it go bending?

Hi Alan,

I got a roll from home Depot . I think it was 50 feet and came quite tightly coiled and wrapped in plastic such that it fitted nicely in my (extra suitcase that I bought in Walmart just for this) . I bought two rolls. I used one to make 6 arches , each of 2.5m and put it against the fence . I have one left over in my garage and will click a photo and post if you wish tonight.

Unfortunately I did not realise that the domestic flights only give u one bag , so had to pay for lugging the extra suitcase a couple of times in the US before I came back . In hindsight should have bought it at the last stop before returning :(.
So I did not complain about the cost of the shoes and other shopping

I'd get 6 lengths at the Adelaide mini. Finally made up my mind that I'll go ahead with driveway arches.

Thank you very much for organising this.

Very keen to know how they Bend, if they are the same as Matt's video, sign me up.... number wise maybe 5 or 6 or 10, still deciding, lol, as I said earlier, I think your going to fill up a whole container with the amount people are going to want, lol

I just collated the numbers and they are down on what I thought there was. I will chase up supplier on Tuesday and get pricing on 50 lengths to each of the minis as 50 is currently looking like the number.
