Last time I did something like this used pipe like you suggest but thick wall steel split it first then clamped two halves togeather.When cool un done clamps and out comes a sausgae perfect with just little seam marks
Made heaps like that hardest part cutting pipe nicely in the power band saw built cradle to hold the pipe to feed it through in out of wood. Many years ago but it worked. Frost plug on bottom modded and welded to one half of pipe only.
