okay -

once critical detail, however - and that is hoping to have no drive at either end.

i came across this binding barrel that is press-fit. but i doubt that'll provide enough tension to hold in place.

also - if i decide to use a binding barrel with a drive head - i would prefer to be a thin head - but all the heads i looked at are bulky.

i'm using mcmaster-car / are there any other manufacturers that you can recommend?

cheers -
