    Similar to what you would see on Infinite Irons I need just the sleeve how sales this product or even where I could get the material to make my own?

    You may be able to just buy a cheap SS single flaired body jewlery tunnel. Cut a slit in it?

    Or buy a 10$ china machine and desolder and remove the sleeve.

    I think you want 10mm ss tubing with an 8mm diameter and a 1mm wall. You can find that on eBay or a plumbing shop.

    Good options as well. I have seen a similar fix mentioned once where the person posted something like "Commandeered a tunnel from the piercer at the shop"

    Single flared tunnels are like a buck or two from any jewellery supplier or a straight tunnel, even cheaper

    I personally dont like them on my machines and just cut them off. I'll take a look in my junk drawer to see if I have any. I'll just send them to you if you want them. pm me your address. I'll just throw them in an envelope and just send them snail mail.
    can't=finished by end of today, impossible=finished by end of week, out of your mind=already finished
