I'm so excited! My dad works for a maintenance crew and being such a great ferret grandparent rescued some JW1036 (http://www.jettools.com/Shop/index.cfm?navPage=4&iid=13237&tab=details) that he saw laying in the dumpster. He said "I figured they'd like it plus it's real heavy duty." This tubing is great. I've heard other people on here talk about dust collection hoses but it is the first I've actually seen. The one he found is clear with a 6 inch diameter and about 6 ft long (it was a leftover piece I guess...luckily the end he found had the manufacturers tag on it so I could look it up). The wire that reenforces it is about the same thickness as dry cleaner hangers. My fattest ferret really enjoys it. He was doing all kinds of rolling and turning in it. Poor Gimli can barely get through the regular clear ferret tube! The two skinny ferrets like to race through it side by side. The website doesn't say how much it costs and no retailers were listed within 30 miles of my area which makes me wonder how it got thrown away but I just thought I'd pass along the info.
