I parted this set out some 16 months ago and have so far been unable to sell
the ribbed hoses. Maybe my price is too high. But I have from this set 2 hoses
that are 32 ribs long and 2 that are 35 ribs long.

If you go through the instuction manual you can see that the purple color is
only for silver hoses and not blue ones. I bought missing parts for this set
and all 10L were too short.

I agree with you. The instructions show that all of the blue hoses designated
by the light blue dot should be the same length. The length definitely looks
like it should be about 11L. Your requests have been accepted.

Cheers,
Randy

Huh? The original inventory had the book and put in what he put in and what
I got out of a sealed set matched what he said. I have definite continuity on
the pieces in question.

These hoses are notorious for being up to 1L off in length in either direction.
I have plenty of sets where hoses are supposed to be the same length in a set
and one will be different and make the build look funny.

The lengths of the flat silver hoses in the inventory were confirmed by the LEGO
replacement parts website, but the blue hoses in the inventory are not listed
there to help confirm them. In this case, I have to use my knowledge of these
parts along with what the instructions show for the build.

I know the sealed set contents have hoses that differ slightly in length (32-35
ribs), but according to the instructions, the four hoses are all supposed to
be the same size. Knowing that these hoses can vary slightly (and yours do),
I believe it is better to have them in the inventory this way to make sure the
build can be constructed as shown with hoses of all the same length.

Cheers,
Randy
