A quick revisit on the idea of using two inserts and spacers as the chamber: Is it possible to tap the outside of the spacers? Basically, to turn them into hollow screws? I was thinking of making a crystal chamber, and using those spacers as the supports so that I could run the wires *through* the spacers to keep things neat and tidy. But, back to the original question, is it possible to tap things like that?
Good on topic necro post I think what you are after is threaded rod, but hollowed out. I haven't been able to find any myself.... but i figure it is out there...
*edit* good old Mcmaster Carr I think this is what you are looking for, or at least something like it...
Bold and italics addedWith a hollow center, these studs are ideal to use as axles, vents, or passageways for wiring. Studs are made from 4130 chromium-molybdenum alloy steel. They have a black-oxide finish that provides mild rust resistance and some lubricity. All studs have a Class 2A thread fit and minimum Rockwell hardness of B90 but are not rated for tensile strength. Length is measured from end to end.

Aha! Perfect. For a second there I was thinking "Hmm....close, but it's still solid..." and then I scrolled down and viola! Thank you very much.
