About product

Plasticard Pipe ELBOWS 6 mm from Green Stuff World

These are plastic pipe elbows, that is a building material for your own work, not a model of any particular installation. The figure 6 mm in the name gives the diameter, not a scale, and the product therefore has no scale. It can be used in any of them, provided the diameter matches what the pipe is meant to represent on the scene.

Why elbows pay off

Straight plastic tube is easy for a modeler to come by; the trouble starts the moment a run has to turn somewhere. Bending a tube without flattening it is slow work and the result tends to be irregular. A ready-made elbow removes that problem: its curve is clean and always the same, so a whole run reads as though one factory had made it. The smaller 6 mm diameter suits second-order piping: runs along walls, connections to machines, the hydraulics of large installations or details on science fiction and industrial structures.

Work tips

  • Shorten the ends with a sharp knife or a fine saw and level the cut with a file; the joint will then fit exactly.
  • Follow on with tubes of matching diameter, so that the transition between the curve and the straight section does not show.
  • Lay down a base coat before painting; the plastic then holds the shade evenly.
  • Bring the run to life with rust, greasy stains and flanges made from plastic profiles.

Who it is for

  • Builders of industrial and urban dioramas.
  • Modelers who make their details their own way.
  • Builders of gaming terrain, factories, refineries and science fiction sets.
  • Railroad modelers filling in the technical facilities of stations and sheds.

FAQ

No, it is the diameter of the elbow. The product has no scale; it is chosen according to how thick the piping on the scene is meant to be.

From plastic tube of matching diameter. You choose the straight sections according to the length of the run, while the elbows deal only with the change of direction.

Best with cement meant for plastic or with cyanoacrylate glue. It pays to level the cut before joining, so that the joint does not show.
