I would try clear PVC tubing first Posted by: kayamedic on Feb-21-13 10:27 PM (EST)
its far more resistant to crushing than pool noodles. You will have to do some cutting for the topside curve for sure, but it ought to work. http://www.homedepot.com/Plumbing-Pipes-Fittings-Valves-Vinyl-Pipe-Tubing/h_d1/N-5yc1vZbuyw/R-100204418/h_d2/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&storeId=10051#.USblBKVyshU I suggest a scamper through your local hardware store. No one knows how to help you but there are often products that fit your "out of the box" needs.
