Has anyone out there made rod tubes from PVC pipe? I made a couple of them over the weekend by using the PVC primer, then PVC cement to attach an end cap on one end. The other end will be the same type of cap but, obviously, not glued. I like the way they turned out but my question is this...The odor from that PVC cement is very strong inside the tube. How long before that odor goes away and/or is the odor harmful to a rod inside the tube? I've left the caps off so they can air out but the smell is still there. Any ideas???

Thanks, Lonnie
