Hi All,


I tossed up a reference page of several plastic pipe components available at
Home Depot (Woodbury, MN) for Pipe Racer comparison purposes.

http://www.visi.com/~dc/abs/plastic_pipe.htm

I'm hoping the 'C5806' 45 degree elbow that was available here is similar
to the 'C5806SR' version you have.
The 1 1/2" ABS pipe was only available in 10' lengths but that isn't a big
deal.
I also added a few PVC 'pressure' components to the list mostly because
this type of PVC 'Tee' was more symmetrical than the ABS version.

Hope this helps a bit. Let me know if I'm missing a component which might
be used for either Pipe Racers event and I'll try to track it down and add
it to the page.

participating in this event)

to know if others around the Lego community are interested in building for it
and playing at BrickFest!

PS-If you're interested, could someone confirm the part numbers at an American
Home Depot so we're all on the same page?

(...) Wow! Now that's dedication! Unfortunately the C5806SR is not the C5806. The SR must be "small radius" or something, because it's a lot tighter of a turn. I have put up a picture on the website. Is the SR available in Minnesota? Steve, do you (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
