Hello all, (...) tube (...) How about these technic bricks 1 x 2 with hole. You can put them thru these. Probably they will not end up straight but atleast not bend. Of course you have to leave it a couple of days to rest... Greetings Maico Arts (23 years ago, 24-Nov-01, to lugnet.technic)

One thing I would suggest trying (on a tube you can afford to loose!) is to put a piece of wire (or whatever) in the tube, and then put it in a sunny place for a day. Somewhere like a well lit window-sill. Allow it to cool by itself at the end of (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-01, to lugnet.technic)
