They look like straight up pipe but they all have aluminum or steel centers so the blade goes into the aluminum or steel mostly aluminum and just screws in for easy in and out and then it’s very strong and then I put PVC sleeves over the metal.

Yep. I get that. I do similar stuff for some of my PVC pipe bows. Also, I was gonna say before reading your second message that it looked like a cool mix of an Ahsoka lightsaber and something else, then read the next one! I like it!

Luv it! That was exactly how I started out almost 5 decades ago. I was a bike ride away from a toy store that had an aisle full of Guillows, Cox, Sterling, & Comet models. For $5 I could get a Guillows, some dope & Ambroid glue. After High School, I promoted myself to Pizza Delivery where I used the tip money to pay for flying lessons. My first model was a J3 Cub from Scientific & my first flying job was Powerline Patrol in a Super Cub.
