You know that might be workable, About a two inch piece pulled through
say a 5/16 copper  tube, Id start with about a foot long piece of
tubing and trim the length untill it emerged correctly. I could paint
some thinned wood glue on by hand 3 feet at a time pull it through, cut
it off paint the next 3 feet etc.

What I've seen used for forming matchpipe was a long horn-like device made from a curled piece of *** metal. The botton edge was straight and parallel to the direction of paper travel. That edge had a double bend in it to make a channel for the edge of the paper strip to slide in and to hold tension on the paper as the horn forced it into a tube shape.
