Thanks Damien.
I've got a short piece of PVC pipe with end caps as the center piece at the moment.
It was originally going to hold the balun. Should be sturdy enough to bolt the yellow tongue to.
The arms of the dipole are attached along 3mm poly rope, so nothing puts any strain directly on the wire.
Pictures to come after I finish killing myself filling the XYL's above ground garden beds and get the feedline made up (why is it they say "Im going to..." and we end up doing the work?).
The irrigation pipe I've got is 19mm, but I know where there is some thinner stuff I can cut some off.
