So
I am wondering if anyone has some good sources for
heat Shrink Tubing
approx 1/8" & 1/4" maybe larger and smaller as well
red and black possibly white
looking for good quality, and good quanity pricing
I don't just want to head down to ratshack
any suggestions?
thanx

Try partsexpress.com or wirecare.com. Both have good selections of tubing, though I always got mine from partsexpress.

Last time I got some, I got it from ebay. 3:1 in various lengths, colors, and then some.

is 3:1
better than the 2:1?
does it just shrink more and tighter?
would you recommend 3:1 over 2:1?

3:1 means it shrinks to 1/3 it's original size, and so it's tighter and stiffer. I definitely prefer it.
2:1 means it shrinks to 1/2 its original size and seems to be the default sold in stores (at Ratshack, etc).
