    A couple of lengths of wooden dowl and some cord. You can also use fibre glass tent poles with the Elastic so they fold up. Or just like old 2 piece tent poles.

    Cut a bicycle tube about 4 cm long. Roll it on itself. You will get some sort of rubber donut ring. You can slip it on one of the two poles to stop them banging against each other's.

    Re: DIY quadsticks, covering them in cloth tape, either the camo stuff or sports/medical tape like Coban makes them much nicer to hold and quieter to deploy.
