That's funny, I bought mine at Builders' Square.

Fancy instructions at:

But some of us just use open tubes and roll them in a tray of
solution with the lights out; wearing rubber gloves, of course.

I tried building my own too. When I built the 4x5 tubes they worked fine but
the larger caps of the 8x10 size presented problems. If I made the caps
tight enough to prevent leakage then it was difficult getting them off and
that messed up my development times. If I made them loose enough to get off
quickly they leaked. I finally decided that life was too short and bought
some that really work well and are a pleasure to use from The View Camera
Store. They are expensive but the threaded caps are much nicer than the
home made variety.
