I'm thinking of splicing sink tips using T14 or equivelent. Anyone know where to order bulk 12 wt level line for the floating section?

Try the Red Shed Fly Shop or River Run Anglers. Both should have all of the material you're looking for.

I no longer have any. Aaron @ River Run Anglers had a good supply at one time and that is where I would look first. Other then Aaron I don't know of a source other then maybe ebay.

While certainly not an inexpensive route using Rio's cheater packs(2.5', 5', 7.5' floating and 5' intermediate) have been working quite well for 3 tips.
The 9/10/11 cheaters are just right for T-14. The cheaters in lighter weights will work for T-8 and T-11.

If you 'bomb out' getting it locally check the advertisers on this UK based fly fishing board: http://www.flyforums.co.uk/ 99% of the advertisers will ship to the US and credit cards work everywhere.

Aaron says that he can't get that any more and doesn''t have any now

Put the call out on a major UK based fly board. Let's see what we can come up with.

One reply already to my post in the UK: http://www.tacklebargains.co.uk/acatalog/Fly_Fishing_Lines.html

I've ordered many times from UK suppliers and have yet to have a problem. As the 'product' is being sent over seas you DON'T pay the VAT, etc., tax(s).

Here's another option for 12 wt lines; by the pricing (even in Pounds) they're 'cheaper than chips.'

I have eBay screen for items with "spey" in the description and email me a daily list. Lately, at least one or two a day Orvis 10- or 12-weight spey lines are listed, starting at $5 or $9.95 + $5 shipping. The Type III's are very long belly lines, about 105' for the belly alone; a great source of raw splicing material. The Type II's are 65-75' mid-belly lines.

how much you need, i got some laying around...... 12 and 15wt maybe short of a 100 ft or so if i remember.

Talon Fly Lines from the UK makes DT12/F and DT12/I lines for a reasonably cheap price. The Talon DT12/I level belly section weighs 15 gr/ft, with a .074 dia., braided Dacron core, Sky Blue. Search Ebay.
