   Could be done, i guess.
   However.
   I've done some casual reading on the development
   hours/years/dollars that went into those simple
   seeming insulators.  I'd buy 'em:  Home brew
   gets into a LOT of unknowns of
   material/purity/lifeunderstress...

   One might by analogy ponder the recent discussion
   about the conductivity of the lettering on the
   PVC pipe (If I'm recalling accurately???) as
   illustrating the pitfall possibilities.
