the only reason I can see for this is for the light transimitting properties, is this why??? and www.technologysupplies.co.uk for acrylic tubing big selection
Well yes and no! The main reason is to protect the tube itself. they are very brittle........ The cold cathodes from pcmods or anywhere like that come in a protective tube.............
but as soon as its in situe I dont think it matters that much, either way, better safe than sorry really I am gonna get some tube for mine, but only becasue of the light properties
