Sometime the Torrance location is out , but will order it for you. Here are the item #s for the various tubing diameters. Just call a head of time to make sure they have it. If the people in the irrigation dept. that you're making a hoop, they'll know what you're talking about! But I can't find connectors there - I do order them from McMaster-Carr Hope this helps!

Go online. I get mine from McMaster-Carr. For connectors, you can use tubing that has the same OD as your main tubing's ID. The tubing I like is McMaster-Carr parts number 50375K54 (3/4” ID, 7/8” OD) or 50375K57 (3/4” ID, 1” OD). (Same material, but one is twice the thickness/weight as the other).

I've searched and called Lowes, Home Depot, Ace, Aqua-Flo, and some other irrigation places. I actually found the connectors at Ace.. but the 3/4" appears to be the inner diameter of the ones I got. Needa' switch those. =/ The tubing is what's really being a problem, do any of you know of a specific store that usually carries the 3/4" 160 PSI tubing? Has anyone gotten some tubing recently and could point me in the right direction? I'm in Torrance, and the Lowe's on Western Ave. got my hopes up... The website says it's in stock - but the employees said otherwise. I'd really, really like to avoid buying it online.
