Since this question frequently comes up, I thought I'd
share what I did.

Shows my end cap. I simply got a 4" flat PVC endcap
and cut it down to 1" and glued it on top.

Shows how I took a PVC bushing and cut it to around 1"
high, ran my wire inside, soldered the wire to a brass
bolt, added a washer and nut, then epoxied it to the
end cap.

Shows how I can attach my small John Freau corona
ring.

Shows how I use a spacer for attaching my larger John
Freau toroid.

I attach the above mentioned toroid using a rod
coupler and brass threaded rod.

As you can see, it's strong enough to hold up to three
fairly large toploads.
