Just tried this, cracked my stardust tube in the process of getting it off and fixed the crack with superglue. Anyway used the same syringe tube from a ce3(?) I have long since stopped using. The syringe tube fits the base perfectly, but I couldn't figure out the top.

I have a SS tube from a spent boge, the carto plug with a hole punched in it, but I'm out of syringes...

Tried to use two carto condoms, but while it fits well it makes refilling a PITA. Any suggestions?

Also can I make the tube longer than the stardust tube and fill past the wick without it flooding? I figure it's gonna flood if i try this but might as well find out!

Njt07, For the top I used a punched rubber from a syringe and an old SS(pipe cut) carto tube. If you have a tube cutter, cut the SS tube above your punch hole and you can use that. You still need the punched rubber from the syringe however. We can not fill past the wick without flooding because the tube is open unless you seal it somehow. Maybe with a small piece of silicon gasket or something. But if you want more juice, instead of over filling, past the wick, try a larger and lower/wider tank ie... 50ml syringe or a bottle of some kind. Please let me know how it goes!:vapor:
