PVC rail

[Lax_Bro40]

ok i found like 4 20-30 foot long pvc pipes in my backyard the other day. Im ganna cut them in half and make a flat down. I have all the plans but i dont no how i will get the to parts to hold together. Ne ideas?

 

[dweezileast]

yes sir. pop a nail in the open end of both tubes, and run a line of liquid nails or caulk down so the tube sits on top of it. should hold pretty solid.

drill a hole in the top of the pvc big enough to get a drill bit through, then drill a pilot hole and screw through the bottom into a 2x6 of you want a double barrel or 2x4 for a single. that holds nicely but if you want stronger you can countersink a screw in the top and have it flush with the top

Take a drill, go along the pvc and every 2 ft drill a whole through the top and bottom, that way yuo can get screws in all the way along the pipeing. Nails in each end of the pipe will eventually come loose and cause the pipe to roll back and forth.

drill a hole

PVC rails break really easily unless you've got some super burly stuff.
