Hey Bruce,
I order the black and yellow tubing from McMaster Carr. I want to try to make the bands. Where do I buy the 8mm airsoft ammo? I'm guessing the wooden dowel I can get from a hardware store? Thanks

When I made mine, I used beads from a craft shop. I wish we had McMaster here in the UK. Getting tubing was difficult. I got a 10m hunk from Amazon, but it was bundled very badly and is full of kinks. These won't come out and are a potential weak spot; I would hate to have a band break.

I'm probably going to get them on Amazon because of Prime free shipping. I got 25' each of black and yellow tubing already. |

The ammo is very inexpensive. A few dollars for a bag of 500. BTW, we have Mr.Potatohead to thank for this.

They also sell it in Walmart in the sporting goods section and at the big chain store sporting goods stores such as Dick's Sporting Goods, Academy, etc. Oh wait, you live in New Jersey don't you Michael? The big retail stores there may not have firearm and hunting sections in the sporting goods department. |

Bruce for some reason when I go on Amazon, the only 8 mm I see is 1500 rounds. All the rest are 6mm, .20 g, 5000 count or more.

After You mentioned about New Jersey it dawned on me that I could go right across the bridge. |
