| Hobby Lobby carries them. Possibly a good automotive supply place too.

| Hobby Lobby has them, but you can make something that works just as
well: Cut about 3/16 off the end of a piece of tubing and using
needle nose pliers, stretch it over the end of your fuel tubing. This
will give the extra constriction needed to hold it tightly in place on
your carb or muffler fitting. Works fine for me.

| If you push the point of a pencil into the line you can get it to roll
back over itself doing the same thing without the cut. Push the pencil
in and when you get it almost all the way on, you can roll the end back
off over itself. I've done it with the medium tubing that way. You
might need something bigger for the large tubing. Don't poke the
pencil through the tubing wall.

| Thanks. I will try these ideas and see how I get on. I think I will
get the clips from Hobby Lobby but that will take a while.
Regards,
Eric.

| 1415.6 | Got the clips | GALVIA::ECULLEN | It will never fly, Wright ! | Tue Apr 28 1992 10:25 | 7 |
| Clips arrived mid-week last (approx 2 weeks delivery from Hobby Lobby).
The larger clips were shipped but the smaller ones were not in stock so
they cancelled that part of the order. I will probably just tighten the
larger clips to fit or else just double over the tubing. I like the
idea of clips for ease of replacement etc on the field. But anyway.

| 1415.7 | barbs for holding on tubing | GALVIA::ECULLEN | It will never fly, Wright ! | Mon Oct 04 1993 07:50 | 5 |
| Just read a note off the usenet on Dubro 'solder on brass barbs' that are
soldered onto brass tubing to prevent tubing slipping off them. There
were no other details. So has anyone seen or heard about these ?
Eric.
