				Bill,
   
  I made pitot tube and static tube.  Before  mounting it on the plane I fastened it to a broom handle about 3 feet long  and ran hoses to the asi.  I had someone drive the car while I held the  pitot / static system out the window and compared to the speed of the car.   This is by no means considered an accuracy test but it does test function over  different speed ranges.
