Steve,
I've also used the old plastic 'switch plates' the thing that goes over the
light switch on the wall. I use a dremell tool to shape them. Haven't made
any hollow dies yet though. The tube I used is PVC drain pipe as under a
sink etc. It's inside diameter was larger (but only slightly) that the
plunger on the caulk gun.
Take care..
Tony

Tony,

That's very close to how I make my guns. The difference is I use 55mm
rainwater pipe, and pop-rivet a disc of plastic cut to fit onto the
plunger. The dies are made by using one of those cheap hole-cutter kits
you get in hardware stores; the hole it drills in the middle is a good
start for a die shape.

I am looking to buy, or make, an inexpensive extruder. Any ideas?
