That looks nice, but I don't know if I've seen that particular display. I've 
seen the others, but they don't include the copper tubes. Their smallest Cu 
tube is 5/32 and .014" wall, and they don't specify the hardness. It comes in 
36" lengths.

The copper refrigeration tubing (50' rolls) and automotive tubing (25' rolls) 
comes in 1/8" dia, .030" wall and is annealed.

Of these, I'd say that the 1/8 automotive tubing looks like the best choice, 
but the hobby tubing looks like it would be easiest to find. Thermocouples 
would also be easy to find.
