If you got those pill (medicine) casules that are empty you could probably make miniature paintbals, and they would probably fit into 8mm or 6mm pipe. 30mm is quite big hey
btw, my parents went to both Singapore and Japan (my aunt lived there for 17 years) last year, and they loved it there!

It depends if you want practice or tournament balls, and how much you willing to pay

Are we talking singapore bucks or USD? How much is one (sinapore currency) to the dollar? If its just for practice, try find the cheapest probably.

USD... i think 1SGD= 1.75 USD if i'm not wrong, but with economy here expected to boom to 7-8%, it should go down.

100 USD is a lot. I can get 500 balls for R150, and there are 7 rands in 1 dollar; so with all that, you should get 2333 balls!
