Ok, well i had been wanting to make a pvc gun stand for awhile now. I came across the idea to use my old science fair project and get the fittings needed off of it, instead of going and spending more $$ for new ones.

Heres the project, it was a hydropnic garden w/ lettuce and tomatoes, that worked really well

...

Until, i put it outside, then everything kinda died

..

So, i dis-manteled it and robbed it of its pieces, took them inside and cleaned all the plant slime off them w/ soap and an old toofbrush..

Have to get some more pipe tomorrow, so there will be pics of finished product tomorrow.

But I made something useful, and helped the earth!

lol

yay, good for you mate! hopefully it turns out ok, those pips seem kind of large...

**tmaxx_2.5** · July 22nd, 08:53 PM

ok, heres the stand:

I think it looks alright, Its not foldable or anything, just for display in my room. Anyways, not to bad for $1.98 for pipe.

I'll probally paint it later.

**RalphWL19** · July 23rd, 05:43 PM

Damn dude that stands BadAss You should put the "wings" back on and put 2 small fiberglass boxes on each wing for random junk like hex keys, manuals, bolts, etc.

**Ryan_Page** · July 23rd, 06:39 PM

**Kyle7257** · July 24th, 03:38 PM

I like it better without the wings...those wings take up a lot of shelf space.

not really, the fittings and elbows are a bit expensive. Prolly moore like $20 or so, the pipes not expensive tho, mine was $0.26 a foot.
