   The problem with cardboard in close quarters with vacuum tube equipment is the   
   heat. The multi-section cap in my Dynaco ST35 is less than two inches from the   
   output tubes, which run at 240F +/-. For just one example. Not that there is   
   any danger of fire -   
    but it is quite warm. I also want the metal can look. I have found sources,   
   even at reasonable costs - at quantities of 500 or more.
