I'm not a repairman (professional or otherwise), but I've got to imagine, in some instances, it's more cost effective to replace out-of-round (or crushed) tubing, rather than try to repair it.
Does a large company like Meinl Weston (or Buffet, or whatever) manufacture their own tubing, or do they source it out from a larger supplier? If so (to the latter), it seems to me that the tubing must be available from another source. After all, these are standard metric sizes, aren't they?
