My guess is that they found a hole saw or maybe a pair of hole saws to get a thick enough kerf that could cut a snug, round mortise to slip the tube into.
Then, a little sandpaper to roughen the end of the tube and a bit of epoxy in the mortise.
Mortise may not be the right word. I am talking about a groove to seat the tube end. The hole made by the lead drill for the hole saw will help later with blowing out sawdust.

The bottom shelf is resting on the support and the upper one I seen has a screw cut did not see any other screws due to limited visual.
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

I made one using PVC that hangs on the wall behind my lathe. It has a plywood back, and bottom and triangle gussets on the ends. I cut the PVC at an angle on the top and bottom ends so I could run screws through the PVC into the back of the rack. Over time I've added bits to the front edge on the bottom to hang various accessories.
