McMaster-Carr (www.mcmaster.com) is my go to place for materials. I use a ton of acrylic tubing to build my reactors (chemical, not calc) for my PhD and these guys have a good selection. May be a little bit more but it'll be at your house before you know it and you can find almost anything you want.

Not that I know of. Just got a $900 parts order from them about 5 days ago. I could have been what you were trying to order maybe?

No I was just ordering some nylon thumbscrews etc, and they wouldn't ship to Canada. I used to order from them all the time, good news that they are shipping again.

I should probably state that I am ordering all of this through my work at the University. I will extend the offer to you guys, if McMaster won't ship to you, I can order it and give it to you.

Hi ScubaSteve:

Are you still open to ordering for us. looking for some speciality peristaltic tubing, and looks like Mcmaster has it.

PM me with what you are looking for. There are some things that get charged crazy tariffs if you bring it in from the States but you can probably find it here. I deal with a lot of peristaltic pumps so I can likely help you find what you are looking for for cheap. Otherwise, yes, I can likely order it for you.
