[quote=leeboweffect]I've seen folks use aluminum tubing from places like Lowes for non-telescoping variants:

Then use this end for connection to the crossbar:

Check the plug OD vs the tubing ID to make certain you have a fit. A bit of epoxy or a sleeve may be necessary.
Put a cork ball or something similar on the end toward you so as to not be shish kabobed by the thing in an OHCRAP moment.[/quote]
