Simple support method makes costly jigs and fixtures unnecessary. "Dummy" tubes installed at regular intervals to support "real" tubes before real tubes installed, filled with Cerrobend (or equivalent) material, metallic substance with low melting point, makes dummy tubes rigid so they brace real tubes as installed. When all available spaces for real tubes filled, dummy tubes removed and replaced with real tubes.
