If they are PVC the easy way would be to grab one of the cheap wood
burning kits. Then a set of the number heads they make for them. Let the
thing heat up and emboss the number in the cover and tube. Let it cool
and fill the embossed groove with nail polish. You could even pick
colors to match the alloy/material in the tube to make it a bit faster.
IE: white for aluminum, black for steel, yellow for brass, silver for
stainless and so on.
The print out a chart with the numbers, alloy, amount. Use a laser
printer if possible as that print holds up better than an ink jet.
Slide the chart into a sheet protector and have fun.

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost
