Can you use regular tubing the same way you use Acrylic?

What i mean by "the same way" is if i can use it straight.

In regards to this picture:


Acrylic tubing is used to make the loop very straight and clean. Well I dont see why you would be able to do the same with just regular tubing?

Couldnt you just cut it to length and have it straight like that? or am i missing something?

Can flexible tubing be used to make straight loops?

Sure you could, it would be expensive and require the correct angled fittings and it still might not be perfectly straight like the acrylic tubing would be. But the acrylic tubing is more expensive too. It is totally up to you.
