Thanks guys.  One example of where this came up is my boat trailer, 
with hydraulic surge brakes.  The line is semi-visible and rather 
long.  What's the longest straight piece you can buy?  So anyway, 
based on your comments, I did a little searching and found 
this:  http://www.brakequip.com/tools_tube_straight.html.  Seems like 
just the thing!  Searching further, I found lots of articles 
describing the cool new device.  But virtually no one actually 
selling it.  Finally, I found this place:
http://www.southco-ind.com/commerce/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=7159
The price they list is $310.  Seems like a lot for what it is.
