Rainbow Arches

[Phrog30]

It's about 5' in diameter, the roll is approximately 8" high. The weight is a guess, maybe 40lbs. It was delivered freight because of the unusual size, not weight. It should fit in most pickup trucks and I would assume a minivan if at an angle.

I also am interested

Hey Loren_Yarbrough

I am in Central Fl if you want to split the roll I would meet you.

That may work  as I would only need 50' of the roll

I'm using this same tubing for my arches this year.  I too ordered it from McMaster-Carr.  I asked for a quote for shipping purposes, which came back at $8.  I thought why not for that price.  Imagine my surprise when I see the actual invoice of $76 for shipping alone!  And I only ordered 30 feet of the tubing and it was coiled up about 6' in diameter for me.

I got hold of McMaster today, and they told me $18.00 to ship 2 25' pieces and 4 10' pieces. I questioned she on the amount and asked her to give me a firm amount on Monday  before they ship.   we shall see.

Hi  Phrog30,

Thanks for the size info.

I have a relative that lives on lake martin, if I can't work a deal out with McMaster then I may have my relative step in if you still have it and come pick it up.

If you have that $18 dollars in writing, then they should honor it.  In the end I paid $10 for shipping since I questioned the charges after they told me one amount and charged me another.

Weird on the shipping. The invoice for shipping always comes after the purchase.  It took a few days to get a shipping invoice. Several others have had the save experience. It's quite different when it's freight vs parcel.

Yes, this was my experience too.
