The link mentions the difficulty of finding tubing to use.

Brass tubing for hobbyist might do the job. Thin walled and in various diameters. Here is one link: https://www.hobbytools.com.au/metal-tube-round/

Plenty on ebay too.

I am wondering if you might be able to braze brass to steel? Would be stronger than epoxy.
