When I used an Eliminator to make an Enerjet 1340 clone I just used a BT-56 stage coupler (the regular fish paper sort) and put a 1/10 inch long ring of body tube in the center of it. The tube cutter I have (one of Chris Michelssen's but it is similar to the Kuhn cutter currently available) with a fresh blade made cutting a ring that small not terribly difficult.

Then, a ply disc from Semroc inside with a screw eye made a functional replacement part that looked right on the outside.
