I've convinced myself that all the pieces of the ribbed tubing in the sets
I have are of some integer stud length - 2L, 4L, 16L, etc. I began by
just measuring them in cm or mm, but as I look back on those measurements
now, they always divide evenly by the stud-separation length. Definitely
true to within a mm or so.

I'm not as sure about this one, but there does seem to be some
correlation.
