the idea was that you squeeze the tube a bit (as it was split along one side and holes cut to get at things inside) and slide it in. the tension of the inner tube trying to spring back to normal held the electronics in place. i have yet to try it as i am trying to find the video again to refresh my memory on building something like this.
