Default Make your own hardline?

At about $25 for ten feet of 3/4" copper pipe, plus lots of time to put
it together, why bother? I have made short sections for matching and
the like, but wouldn't consider trying to make a long run of it. I do
still have some scraps of 1" thick Teflon from when I helped make a
quarter-wave length of 22 ohm 6-1/8" flanged line to go from 50 ohms to
10 ohms (five 50-ohm ports in parallel). Wow, that was a long time ago
now.

Cheers,
Tom

Seems doable, but have never heard of anyone doing it.

This is what happens when I have too much time on my hands. :-)
