Where the reagents come from

Also a required reagent in 39 other recipes (24 Blacksmithing, 7 Engineering, 6 Jewelcrafting and 1 Mining); Ironforge Breastplate takes the most, 16 per craft.

Weak Flux. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 13 other recipes (13 Blacksmithing); the most per craft: Big Bronze Knife (Blacksmithing, 4 per craft), Bronze Axe (Blacksmithing, 4 per craft), Bronze Mace (Blacksmithing, 4 per craft), Bronze Shortsword (Blacksmithing, 4 per craft) and Copper Battle Axe (Blacksmithing, 2 per craft).

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Copper Tube cost 4 gold19 silver. Most of that is Copper Bar - 2 at 2 gold8 silver each, 4 gold16 silver, 99.3% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 4 gold41 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item has no current Auction House listing to compare it against, so the estimate above is left unknown rather than guessed.
