I am new to these coroplast/SPAD planes. I think that Canadian gutter pipe is thinner and lighter.
Is that correct? Also........ living in Indy,how do I aquire this "Canandian pipe?? Mail order, or ??? Hope my question is not a ..... "Well DUHHHH question"!!!:eek::D ...SPAD rookie..lownslo...

Canadian pipe is lighter, but is getting harder and harder to find here in the US. Some Ace Hardware stores still have the American pipe, and I have used it for both .25 and .40 size planes.

These suppliers are listed on www.spadtothebone.com as mail-order sources for Canadian pipe:
Dan Gipe: [email protected] Spad builder from Michigan will mail order Canadian Gutter pipe, cut to your requested lengths. E-mail for prices.

Ken Latem: [email protected] Spad builder from Canada will mail order Canadian Gutter pipe, cut to your requested lengths. E-mail for prices.

PVC Supply O-Rama: http://www.digisys.net/users/tylert/pvcorama.html Montana Spad, offering different PVC pipe shapes and sizes.

Canadian gutter pipe I can get but, Where do you get whiffle bat's from? I seen some at an RC field in Florida but never anywhere else.

RE: Please don't laugh!!
 

"More brittle"? No. But, Canadian pipe isn't as strong as American pipe because of the thinner wall thickness.

Blue Flat Bats can be found here:
