    I used 1/2 inch PVC pipe. Larger pipe can probably work but you will have to blow much harder to get the dart to go fast. A smaller tube should make the dart go much faster. Also, the longer your tube the faster the dart will go (to an extent). That's why my tube is 4 feet long instead of being shorter and easier to carry.
