I decided the first cylinder cover wasn't as good as it could be - the threaded portion was fractionally misaligned when screwed into the frame but otherwise alright, so I chopped off the threaded bit made a domed piece with a little peg to fit the hole and soldered it together to become the cover for the other end.
Next I made the basic cylinder tube and re-made the front cover (better this time). Here's the bits sort of assembled; the cylinder needs some flanges making for each end yet.
Oh yeah, I lost one of the studs somewhere so had to make another one of those as well.
