Plugging yagi dipole ends to waterproof them

When making my yagis I like to plug the ends of the tubular dipoles so water cannot run down the tube and enter the dipole housing with its corrosive end results.

Many people do not like to add caps to the elements for concerns over altering resonance, so I just cut the cap off and push them in so they are fully inside but water cannot enter. Simples.
