Due to my wife's inability to sit still, lack of coordination and the possible loss of my fishing gear...I've built some outriggers for my canoe. I have yet to paint them, but plan to do so and use the same color as the canoe.
Stuff List:
* 2 street 45s
* 2 4x4x2 tees
* 4 4" pvc caps
* pvc glue & cleaner
* 1 5' section of 4" pvc
* 1 2' section of 4" pvc
* 1 5' section of 2" pvc
* 2 2" pvc caps
* 1 8' section of square aluminum tubing (ourrigger arms)
* 1 3' section of perforated steel tubing (cross bar)
* 2 2"x4" clamps
* 2 2" pipe hangers
* 4' section of treated 1x6 (for the blocks under the clamps)
I have yet to test it, but am expecting it to function well...well enough to keep my wife's butt dry and my fishing gear too. :smiley_blink:
