Free glass tubing in Australia
I recently got a huge amount of glass tubing and solid rod in all sizes from thermometer tubing and tiny capillary tubing up to 1 1/2'. It's all new
old stock from the 50s-80s and there's probably 40-50kg of it in total, with a lot still in original packaging. It was saved from the skip bin at a
school that doesn't do glasswork any more and I would be happy to give it away or trade for chemicals. I'm located in Sydney Australia and pickup
would be preferable but I am willing to post small quantities within Australia if the buyer covers postage.
Edit: Attached images. The tubing is also all borosilicate.

Hey that looks just like my shop!
You can’t claim you drank all day if you didn’t start early in the morning.

I just spent some time flaming the ends of some glass rod to use them as stirring rods.
Thanks currawong. Much appreciated.
