[bobatrooper]

Hi guys

Need some help, I'm currently on holiday in Florida and always pickup some bits to help me with finishing costumes when I get back to the uk. I'm in need of stat driver grey hose as we are only able to get black hose in the uk, can anyone tell me where I might get some nod what it's called as searched online but can't seem to find any.

cheers for the help.

Though I don't know exactly what hose you need, lowes has a great selection of plumbing. Lowes, home depo, ace hardware are some great hardware stores up here. I know a few R2 guys in Orlando and they have a lowes, might be worth hitting up and checking out

I scoured the entire internet, like a LOT, a few years ago. Found a lot of "ok" stuff, but finally ended up getting some from Wampa Wear. They were selling it for X-Wing pilot chest box hoses, but it looks to be the same stuff. Not sure if they still have it. Full costume build is at my site in my sig if you're interested.

Home Depot had some dryer hose that was close, but the profile isn't quite right. Same deal at Lowe's and pretty much every hardware shop I tried. Good luck!

Washing machine drain hoses may work. Different manufacturers make different colours and profiles. I think Bosch makes grey hoses.

Yeah, sorry, I meant washer drain hoses, not dryer hose.

I bought 2 cheap 70s women's hair dryers from EBay years ago. Just found one starting bid is $8 (Vintage General Electric Hair Dryer). They all came white.

I recently got around to finishing my Driver and painted the hoses grey. They look really good.

I'll try to post pics later.
