Transmission line cross-sectional area question

[picowallspeaker]

Those are big pipes , more than a half inch thick , used by public administration for water distribution , I guess . Using orange and gray ones ,which are thinner , brings the problem of bracing , which can be done with lead sheets , and the resulting weight would be then comparable if done with MDF .

Interesting! This would be far easier than my original concept.
I can see one problem thou, my kids will probably "fill her up" with lego bricks and other junk

The pipes I'm planning to use are, as you correctly assumes, thin pipes with a thickness of around 5 mm. I think at least the bigger surrounding tube will need some bracing.

This product is cheap, easy to mount and I think it will do the job http://translate.google.com/translat...istory_state0=
