Question:

Where can I buy cardboard tubing, foam pipe insulation, and clear plastic tubing?

i have to get it for a science roller coaster project. We are building a model roller coaster.

Answer:

Cardboard tubing is available at most shipping retailers (FedEx, Mailboxes Etc., and so forth). Foam pipe insulation and clear tubing (clear plastic hose?) can be found at most home improvement retailers (Lowe's, Home Depot, etc.) in the plumbing department.
If I knew, I would tell you. Audrey got it for our group, you can ask her tomorrow or text her or something. We're using clear tubing, and it works pretty well! ...Except that it was rolled up in the packaging, so it's kind of frustrating because it keeps rolling up. I suggest get something that's not rolled up, if possible. It'll make your roller coaster construction A LOT easier. What's your theme?
umm lowe's or home depot maybe a crafts store
