Re: Plastic whiskers on central spindle: Design Secrets Revealed

We used PVC rollers, with pneumatic tubing.

A VERY easy way to secure the tubing was to drill a whole just a tiny bit undersized in the PVC, then run a short fastener into the end of the tubing in the PVC (requires drilling a hole on the opposite side of the PVC to insert the fastener).
