Most of you have seen and liked the PVC disc holder I have in the back of my car. Of course this was not an original design, Chris Jaskolka got the idea from Team Jerky in Huntsville, and passed it on to me.
Some of you have asked me about it, so I am sharing the specs and tips here.
All Materials are 1/2" PVC
8 Tees (or Elbows) - Tees allow the carriers to stack vertical, Elbows create a clean looking design like mine.
2 Crosses
1 Pipe 10'
2 Pieces of pipe insulation 6' each length (non-slit)
Cut PVC pipe into four 21" segments and eight 3.75" segments.
Assemble and trim to fit as necessary.
1) Glue a 3.75 piece to each end of the crosses.
2) Glue elbows/tees to the ends of the assembled crosses. "Remember, only glue three elbows/tees to the crosses, the other elbow/tee per end will be used later."
3) Glue three 21" pieces to each of the three elbow/tees on one cross brace.
4) Cut three 22" pieces of insulation, slide pieces on the 21" PVC sections.
5) Glue remaining bracket to the three 21" sections of PVC.
6) Cut one 22" piece of insulation, and slide over remaining 21" PVC section.
7) Glue remaining two elbows/tees to each end of the 21" PVC section.
Do not glue the single PVC section w/elbows to the other section. This will be used to access the discs stored in the carrier.
If you have glue (I used PVC glue) and a hacksaw or suitable cutting devise, the total materials costs around $6.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.
