Scott -

Nope, I don't have anything like that. I'll probably end up gluing something
to one end of the cylinder, then do what I do with my pinhole coffee cans -
cover the open end with the plastic that comes with photo paper and keep it
down with a large rubber band (I have a few big ones). I'm sure that there are
more imaginative ways, but that'll at least get me going.
