Backyard rail features

[Kyguyy]

Hello, this year I’m building a better park for my yard, and I need more rails. Right now I have a 10 ft pvc pipe, and 2 10 foot metal rails that are gonna be setup as one. Now I just need another rail to put after the pvc pipe. I want a big tube but those are like $300+ and I’m not looking to spend a lot. Should I just make a double barrel out of 2 2inch pipes?

Steal the big pvc, no one actually pays for those

I took an 11 foot 7 inch diameter from some construction on the side of the road

Yeah construction sites are usually your best bet. Often times they have extra or scraps

Tubes are cool but if you can't find one for free or cheap not worth it imo. Hit up construction companies as mentioned.

Don't worry too much about it. A lot of people dont have a fat tube and have improved massively just building with 2" pvc and 2x4s. Get sendy on builds and keep progressing. A fleet of rails like flat up flat, z rails etc are dope. A fatty tube is sweet but not necessary.

Some advice on summer setups, rails, and trial and errors.

I've heard horror stories about wildlife/trail cameras at construction sites, I've even seen a few in my neighborhood. Not trying to be your mom OP but it's better to ask the construction guys than just take it.

I got a couple big tubes from Craigslist
