Ok I was in town today and I can't find any supliers of pressure rated PVC, my other creations where always made of free parts that I was given by freinds and family, but I am having a really hard time now.

I live in Canada so anyone else who live in Canada and knows where to buy it please tell me.

I checked all of the hardware stores and none of them even know what sch40 or 80 even is!!

The yellow pages arn't very enligtening ether all they sell there are sevices, and I really don't want to buy anything over the internet.

just go to mcmaster..... and for the record, no one in any hardware store like home depot or lowes ever knows what they are talking about or about products unless you are lucky enough to run into a worker who does. They just hire people, teach them nothing. In a privately owned hardware store, youl have more luck with people knowing things.

Can someone tell me how to figure out the shipping price on mcmaster, beceause I can't seem to find the shipping cost unless I buy first. Is there a way to find the shipping price before ordering.

The price includes shipping, that’s one reason they seem so expensive.

No it's not, they charge extra for shipping... don't tell him something if you don't know what your saying... I order from McMaster all the time and there shipping is $4 to me and I live less than 40 miles away, but I always get the same size small box, UPS goes by box size, not weight from what I heard...

I wish people would stop needing a better signature!

I'm not telling him something that’s not true at least for me I've ordered over $4000 in parts for McMaster not a penny of shipping charges.
