I like the way the shrink tubing applys and appears. One plus is that it can always be easily replaced if damaged

I ruined quite a bit of tubing before I figured out what was going wrong. There is cork tape under the tubing and rubber winding checks for the transitions. When the shrink tube shrinks past the transitions it traps air. I had to poke little holes at the transition spots and work the air out.

Really like the look of the shrink tube. 2 ?'s. Where's the real seat? and where did you get the metal butt cap?
