plastic stickers

i did find one place that sold it but it was £30+ per 6m length!!!

 

surely someone will have something cheaper than that.

Bit cheaper hear

 

PVC Pipe Class 7 Inch | Imperial Sizes | PVCu Pipework | Pipestock

[A Pettersen-Firewood&Chip]

Even better:

 

PVC-U 16 Bar Pipe Class E

 

 

This one is £13 per 6m length . Does this help

[delabodge]

how about blue water pipe?

[se7enthdevil]

using the information given in the pipestock site it says the cheaper class E stuff (£13) is only of 3mm wall thickness but the class 7inch is 5.2mm.

 

this is obviously where the extra cost is coming from. but it's still a bit steep in my mind...

 

the woodworker in the website states that he used the thinner pipe and it didn't hold up and as i intend to hold 100ft3 of wood (beech) on them i don't want it collapsing under the weight.

 

thanks for all the suggestions fellas, keep em coming.

Steve if it is staining you worried about just cover a dry wooden sticker with some waterproof sellotape. I have not done it but can't see why it would not work. To lower the contact area you could pop a groove in each side. I would have thought the conduit in the pictures will flatten out over time with a decent weight on it.

 

Have you had problem with conventional dry wooden stickers?

This is cheap and strong, will hold the weight I would say.

I used to use a plastic board, which I can't remember the name of but is very similar if not the same as the stuff commercial/plastic chopping boards are made. It comes in 8x4 sheets which then I ran through a table saw (lovely stuff to work with) to create my stickers. As you can imagine you get an awful lot from one sheet for c10m cutting time.
