That would be ok as long as the combined width of the slots will allow

just used a hacksaw, and made slots 90° apart, making the slot length
about twice the diameter of the tubing.

I was figuring on making only one set of slots, 180 degrees opposite.
This tubing is quite close fitting ( a 9/1000 " difference between
inside
and outside diamters ) and will require very little compression of the
slotted end to make a tight fit, I would think.

If slots 180° apart clamps it fine, you're done. If not, more slots or
widening of the two slots are in order.
