There is an upside to using a spare antenna Richy... because the tubes all fit into one another...fabricating a cover is much easier...as you can cut a small piece one size smaller slide it into a short outer tube ... plug the ends with melted sprue...maybe add a chain .... that way it is fully functional.... :D

I don't know what that 6mm tube would have cost...but an antenna is a good purchase as you will end up with several different sizes all packed into one unit ;)

why not build it ?

height of the pole and the size of the brolly ! ever tried pulling a piece of sprue over a candle ? it's amazing what thin bits of plastic you can create in diameter ! use to do it when building 1/35 german models as a kid making straps for mp40s'.
