Made one using EMT conduit.
Did a 20M vertcal endfed with a stub made of ladder line. Works as expected.

If I were doing it again I would make it 5/8ths. IMO the 5/8 would be easier
to tune up.

May be- but you would also then require a counterpoise.

Dale, I dont think this would be much of a problem for 10 meters.
