Making round tubes

I'm new to paper modeling but I've fooled with plastic models for years. I've started building a Yamaha YZF-R1 that I downloaded. Probably not the best choice for a beginner, but I really like motorcycles. The kit is a real challange, but I've been doing ok. The one thing that has me stumped is something I thought would be simple, rolling the round tubing for the forks! I've made several attempts and can't seem to get a tube of such a small diameter that is actually round and doesn't have wrinkles or creases in it. Is there a trick to doing this or some kind of special tool? I've even thought of printing on thin paper and wrapping it around a turned-down wooden dowel for strength, but there has to be a better way than that.
