To answer both, i’ve Frequently laminated and rolled tubes with no problem, especially at this diameter. The printed stock seemed a little light so oi seemed the way to go.

I had considered rolling an inside cylinder and attaching after the outer was complete. I may do that with a combination of a circular support insert at either end.

If nothing else. I was able to locate sheets of the Cello-Mount double sided permanent adhesive the I’ve used successfully since 1979. I am going to order a sheet. Have printed out the new orange Rescue panels. Now will wait for Cello-Mount.

The capsule itself came out fine. And now that I’ve colored the edges I think it looks quire good.
