I'm cheap. Not by choice, I'm broke. To save money, and still be able to fly, I've been collecting cardboard tubes. These range in size from just over BT-20 (nice slip fit), to 4 inches or more. Nosecones I might be able to turn on my drill press (haven't tried), or make from found objects (Christmas decorations and Easter eggs!). What I need is a way to join two sections of a tube if I cut one apart. I have a variety of wall thicknesses - thin walled mailing tubes, to tubes thick enough that they could be made into engines. Need a cheap way to do this, preferably with free materials if possible. Ideas?
