Use two internal baffles of 1/4 inch clear acrylic sheet (plexiglass) approx 
5-8 inches in from each end.  Use generous amounts of silicone (GE Silicone 
II) to seal the baffles in place.

Also, before winding, be sure to sand a PVC tube thoroughly both inside and 
outside prior to applying --- again, both inside and outside --- 3 generous 
coats of AC-43 or equivalent.

With these treatments it should hold up for dozens of years.
