I've been testing little frames to support the shroud. They're a bit fiddly until you get them secured with a dot of CA, but pretty stout after that.
These are for a 29mm tube, one from heavy mat and one from heavy paper, maybe 65lb cardstock.

You need to PM me some dimensions too. That one looks like it would work well for the method too.
To the OP: If you want me to shut up and not bring up some dark magic method that nobody knows about, I absolutely will. My goal is to get a few people to try it and in this thread a lot of the shapes seem like they might work. I don't want to derail your thread, so again, a PM saying 'shut up' will be received kindly and I'll not at all be offended. I got stuck on some limitations of the idea and bailed out on it, but seeing the ratios I'm seeing, it might be worth looking at again to see if 15% of the time, it is a good way to go for projects people are building.
