    This should do the trick. We use them with our anemometers for doing combustion tests. Should be right diameter, I'll check at work tomorrow

    Or u could cut the tube off a cheap fly tying bobbin with a dremel or hacksaw

    I use a nail lol or a twig if I don't have a nail (almost wrote anal lol fng autocorrect)

    Looking forward to it...they were rescued from a dumpster.

    I've still got my 8# Orvis for salt that I impulse bought and have been dying to use...I guess I just need to pony up for the Orvis school I've been putting off.

    My thoughts exactly! They're older models but I'm pretty sure they're brand new...the cork on all three is pristine.

    I'll get some pics together and post here...maybe you guys can give me some feedback.
