Is there a cheap way to make some nice looking rod tubes. I see they have tube making kits at Golden Witch, but I don't want to pay that much. I am even thinking of sewing up my own rod sacks...to give you an idea of the budget I'm trying to work from (I also don't really know how to sew, but thats a question for another forum). Can I get aluminum tubes at my local Home Depot... a plumbing store maybe? I really would like them to be metal, as opposed to PVC. Anyone have any good suggestions?
