Yes, I'll fix it for you. Again.
Default ACE Hardware

So, there IS a REAL hardware store still in the area. The ACE on Virginia near the Vassar intersection have a significant stock of typical hardware items, along with a staff that a) know where everything is, and b) are always available to help.

They had plastic square-tubing ends from 5/8" to 1-1/4".

That Ace rules, it's right up the street from my work. Very knowledgeable staff. The one on Baring in Sparks has a good selection too, but I like the new store better.

Of only it were on my end of town. That's just far enough away that'll i'll only go there on a special trip. I miss the Ace that used to be next to Smiths.

But it sounds like I can finally stop cutting myself on the ends of my driving seat with some tube caps.
