    You might want to try using a 4" plus diameter PVC pipe end caps.
    Fill them with Devcon Flexane available from McMaster Carr or other
    industrial supply places. Devcon is available in different durometer
    ratings (softness) and you can make several with different ratings
    and press your piece right into them. Mark them on the sides with
    the ratings so you don't get them mixed up. They all look the same.
    Harbor Freight has these presses on sale regularly for under
    $100.00.
