I really like that idea: it's cheap, neat, easily done and should be very secure - because the shrinkage of the ali tube, when cold, will make a very tight fit on the pot shaft. I wouldn't have thought any further securing of tube to shaft would be necessary - after all, there's not a lot of torque being developed in rotating a pot shaft, even if an on/off switch action is required, is there? Obviously, the longer the tube, the greater the grip. I suppose that a squirt of freezer aerosol could also be applied to the pot shaft as well, just prior to ass'y., if one wanted that extra bit of security.
I've now added that technique to my list of 'fixes'; thank you for telling us about it.
