  • Keep the hacks coming I made a bank rod holder out of PVC pipe that has elbows on it to hold your bottled water or can drinks.

    I'm all for a DIY solution. I have some PVC rod holders myself. But for those listening, skip the primer/cleaner! No need for the expense, mess or ugly purple stains it leaves. You don't need this to be a perfect bond. You can wipe it with a rag or even some alcohol if you're really worried about it. But I challenge anyone to pull apart unprimed PVC that was only glued. I'm old enough to remember doing plumbing before there was primer. We just sanded these parts and glued them together. Thanks for the video.
  • Another awesome video! I use the gorilla brand pvc glue with the primer already added to it. Works great for these type of projects. Love the metal funnel tip!

    Thanks Jerry. You’re ideas are always interesting !

    Not necessary to sand the pvc. Only necessary when plumbing because of pressure.

    Nice,I have a hack challenge if you have time.Make a rod holder for on the hip you can put on belt that will hold a surf casting larger spinning rod that has a ball on butt end.See these for sale but not sure if a surf rod will fit in size of them.

    My dad uses a metal fence post and welded a bolt to it. Then he puts some screw in rod holders on it. He has to use a sledge hammer to put a rod holder in the river bank where he goes because it's so rocky.

    My dad maded them in the 50s. A lot easier ,cheaper and faster !

    I use a "y" with a small straight piece connected to it Then I cut much of the y out to make a rod holder. Then I cut a lot of the straight pipe so it will fit over a square railing. Then I drill a couple holes in it and run a bolt and nut with wings on it to tighten around a dock railing. I tie a rope with a carabiner onto the dock and clip the carabiner to the reel. I lost two combos one year before I did this.
