I'm chuckling at your "Hey Joe" analogy. We were looking at the stripes on an original car that are off centre, masked with a piece of cardboard held in place etc and said to ourselves "I'm going out for a haircut and want stripes on that when I get back". I think you're exactly right when you look at the variations. I also think you'll find the devil (or cost) is in the details. You'll see I grooved the tubes which funnily enough doesn't even grab the clips inside the cap as it's too big a radius on the clips. It does make for an interesting and entertaining study.
