Thank you. This video has so many projects I can use. I bought a lot of 1/2 inch pvc and connectors to make for some tall gates for a couple doorways to keep cats out of those rooms, but they were too heavy to manage, so we are going with security doors. Now I can make a flag pole, hat rack, from the ceiling storage rack, bag support, etc.
awe i love that you made something to protect the fishies! PVC is very commonly used in aquarium stores to provide a place for fish to hide (its easy to make and clean, and is safe/nontoxic) Stress can be deadly for fish so making them feel secure is well worth the investment (esp for expensive fish!) We have had a small pond since i was a kid-and have had neighborhood cats try "fishing" from it-but i dont thing they have ever been sucessfull, as we have many places for the fish to hide (plants and whatnot). Really loving this series, its gonna keep me busy for a while!!
+Specific Love Creations please do not listen to what the dislike people says, they do not know what they are missing! Please continue to post on this channel!!!👍🏻
I fly radio control airplanes and use pvc for test stands, work stands or at the field stands. I can really appreciate your videos! Keep it up, there is no way we can ever run out of uses for pvc pipe!
Just found this and watching every one and sharing them on my Facebook, my kids' Facebooks and friends' Facebooks! Subscribed and created a playlist for his videos. I love to make stuff, especially for kids, so these are fantastic ideas! I have built things with PVC for decades. THANK YOU!!
+Amy Hebert Thank you very much. If you have any unique PVC projects, I would love to see a picture. You can send it to our facebook page: facebook.com/specificlovefanpage
I may have new stuff in the future but for now I am quite busy babysitting my 4 month old grandson with three more planned for the future - from one daughter but I have two so I'll probably just tune in to your channel for good ideas. Got my hands full and it's just the beginning. LOL
Thanks for another great set of ideas for using pvc to make things easier! The great thing about these ideas is that we can always adapt them to make them work for our own specific needs. Thanks again!
These are awesome! We use PVC as chicken feeders. just drill holes into a 3 or 4 inch PVC that's about a foot or two long. put an end cap on one side, fill with feed and the put the other end cap on. Then the chickens can't scratch the feed out onto the ground. Something I thought to try this spring for my garden is to have a long piece of PVC stuck into the ground or have it over a piece of rod that's stuck into the ground and then put my rotating sprinkler into it. I've been enjoying your videos! the other day I made your PVC tablet holder guys and my kids had a blast making things with the pieces so I cut different lengths of PVC and put a handful of fittings into a container with them and now that's their quiet time play box. they have a blast making things with it. (they're 2 and 4)
Your chickens are up taking cancerous toxins from the PVC that you are consume by eating the eggs and chickens . Your water from your sprinklers contains cancerous substances taken up from the PVC, the UV exposure increasing the amount the PVC decays and the amount of cancerous toxins it released. Your children have a massive increased risk to get cancer by playing and working with the PVC, the working releases cancerous particles in the air and the skin up takes the toxins not to mentions the times your children rub their eyes and mouth up taking cancerous substances released by the PVC.
I built a halo shelf along one wall of my apartment. My collection quickly outgrew that and I expanded it with another tier and a full shelf. Lightweight, sturdy, easy to work with and inexpensive.
U have showed many, many great uses for pvc. Its amazing how ur coming up with more all the time. I would like 2 suggest something tho. I often want 2 go back 2 certain ones 2 show my son (or a friend) but don't remember the #of video. It would be so helpful if u could group ur videos according 2 usage (like kitchen hacks, stirage solutions, tools, etc). In this attention -deficit world people will enjoy the video more if it addresses an issue/problem they r dealing with. Ive had friends who said they passed over ur videos for that reason. Keep up the good work.
End of 2019, also late to the party but oh my, what a genius series! I am binge-watching now lol. Many thanks and many blessings to you and your family all year 'round. :-)
any tool / platform / structure you're making with pvc pipe and elbows can be assembled even if you've run out of pvc cement, provided you don't require liquid to be retained: if the pipe and elbows fit snugly, put your tool / rack / structure together, and drill holes thru the joined pipe and elbows near the neck (open ends) of those elbows, just large enough to hold short (3/16" or 4mm) sheet metal screws. Then screw the elbows to the pipes. Snug screws will give you pretty secure pipe-elbow joints. Generally, each joint will require only one screw. If any screw is loose, or works loose, replace it with a screw with a somewhat thicker shaft. If more rigidity is needed at any elbow joint, add a 2nd screw just about opposite the 1st screw you put at that joint. Almost any screw used this way can be made snug by turning it, so you'll find glue is unneeded.
2019 - coming late to this party - but love some of these ideas! Might try using rubber or foam pipe insulator tubing over the handle of your wood carrier!
That cap rack would be awesome for pocketbooks or scarfs. I could see it made smaller for necklaces, bracelets, etc. Not just for the guys. I love your hacks!
Thanks. This is good too, but I am looking for something I can put on the table and do watercolor painting. I have seen it somewhere on youtube but can't find it now. Its more like a stand than an easel.
For projects that have a handle or grip made of PVC use a cut to fit piece of foam pipe insulation to add a softer gripping surface...leave as is if stable or glue to pipe to secure it from slipping
Hi, Your ideas are always thought-provoking, and one came to my mind that maybe you could work on: A trash day cart. I have recyclables (glass & plastic, paper), and regular house waste. I could use a light-weight cart that would allow everything at once, for one trip to the street, and collapse for storage thru the week. Thank you for considering my need. : )
Yes! I used PVC inch and a half for plastic strip for weed cutting cap on one end and ca cap with thread on the other you can attach it to DR mower . If you put a little water in it , it makes the plastic cutting pieces easier to put on the mower.
I stake pvc in the bank around our pond and use it as a rod holder. I use 2 inch but it all depends on the size of your rod. I also use half inch pvc to replace the plastic handles on 5 gallons buckets.
Dang, I keep remembering all of these things I have done or friends and people I have encountered have done with PVC. Here is another. A friend of mine wrapped collectors posters with acid free paper and stored them in PVC pipes. Another buddy that I was in school with had an Architecture Class and he used to store and transport his Architect plans (projects) in PVC.
Great ideas!!! I’ve used PVC for several projects including a boot rack for hunting boots, which are heavy and always seem to be in the way... it resembled the hat rack you made in this video. Since it is spring, how about some videos for pvc uses in the garden and yard? Tower gardens, pvc beds for dogs that get them off the ground and keep them cool, maybe something to go with the drink can holder in one of your other videos? How about a pvc and screen cover for a pond or fountain to keep debris out and the cover would still be light enough to remove when not needed??? Maybe add some of the grommets into the screen to make it collapsible?
Ground archery quiver: a length of 3 inch PVC pipe, drill an end cap and mount a sharpened bolt though the cap using a nut and a washer. Glue the cap to the tube. The top end of the tube can be flared by heating it and pressing a bottle into the end. Paint it bright colors. The quiver can the be pushed into the ground with the spike and hold your arrows while you practice shooting your (pvc?) bow.
I'm about to build a bed extender for my truck, not quite as sturdy, but it beats paying $250+. I'm pretty confident I can make it pretty strong, at least strong enough for what I would use it for. haha.
So I was thinking take 1/2 inch PVC pipe, and take a drill (with a bit the size of the fish food) randomly placed holes in the part of the pipe. Next put a end cap on the end so the fish can't swim up it. Then you should use on of the PVC ball valves so whenever you turn the valve, the fish food falls in to the tank.(you would have a container on the top filled with the food. And that's pretty much it.
I love these pvc vids! Regarding the wild animal feeder-it needs a cover(?) to deflect, prevent water from getting in the feeder opening! Take a piece of 4" x 8" pvc pipe-cut it open lengthwise and using a heat gun, shape it to form a half circle and attach to feeder above the opening. Leave enough room for largest animals to have head clearance! If you make a half circle cut into the upright tube and insert the "rain guard" jto provide support for the guard and using PVC cement to secure it, you will have a nice rain guard without blocking the feeder tube itself!
Great ideas, I enjoy seeing each new video. I'm getting ready to build your flag holder and put it in the front yard. And I most certainly agree with your ultimate life hack. It's the only one you could never go wrong in making and you can take Him with you no matter where you go.
For Leaf bag: make it a little wider put bag in middle The rack has legs that extend out for stability. when bag is full raise rack up over bag since the bag will be heavier then the rack.
I usea 8 inch length of 1 inch wide pvc with a end cap at one end (doesn't have to be cemented but it doesn't hurt) to hold extra hacksaw blades. You can also use 4 inch length 1 inch wide pipe for coping saw blades. You can alter the measurements to accommodate jigsaw blades or sawzall blades or even regulat drill bits.. I also use a 2 foot length of pvc with holes and slots drilled into it to hold screwdrivers and chisels.
I enjoy your ideas and being a mechanic, some required little modifications. My question is, where can I buy some of the larger diameter pipes and test caps? I've tried our retailers but they only carry the basic everyday use sizes. Thanks in advance and I will be sure to share my ideas with you.
That fish tube is a good idea, but I would have to find a larger pipe as my Koi are already 5 to 6" in diameter. Koi get huge if the pond is sized right for them.
I made those exact flag stands about 7 years ago to bring to the NASCAR races. To improve the spin of the PVC pole use a washer that fits around the steel rods on the ground (I used Rebar from Lowe's), that way when the wind blows the pole can spin and the flag won't get tangled up. :-)
On your yard flag pole, the ones I have used would dig themselves into the ground as wind turned the pole. Get a large washer that drops over the Re-rod and just lays on the ground. Make it large enough that the PVC sits on it and will not bore into the ground
have you ever thought about installing a sprinkler system.? LOL! hey but you got some good ideas. I like the carry handle. they sell that handle for carrying drywall.
I have the same flag holder with 2 additional pieces added. Stick your rebar into the ground slide a large washer over the rebar. Than slide a piece of pic over the rebar say 18" long, than slide your flag pole over the 18" piece. It swivels nicely when the wind picks up.
Great stuff, I watched a few of the vids, did a lot of small pvc stuff, even made a beach shovel for my daughter cos its free lol, it comes in handy and seeing your vids just makes it more fun, I love pvc, just we don't get the cool bends and fittings in South Africa boo hoo
in one of my more creative moments I made a mailbox stand using black pvc. Our original pole seemed to attract poor drivers and needed to be replaced too often. I used gravel poured down from the top to keep it stable. It has survived two more hits intact.
It’s really amazing what you can do with PVC pipe I made one for my fire pit for my fire sticks for hotdogs or anything else a fire poker maybe you could do something like that show everyone
where do you find the corner pieces you used on the yard bag frame. I have been looking for these. They are not a normal plumbing fitting you can find at a home improvement store. thanks
wow dude i never seen so many great ideas i been binge watching your channel im def ganna make a bunch of your ideas they all look so kool thanx for the great ideas dude !!!
i was thinking like a much smaller vision that could fold up and could fit in ones pocket kinda like your mashmellow pistol but for you quick change clips for airsoft!!!
A quick way to put in a flagpole or other pole and make it removable for cutting grass etc., put a piece about 6" long in the ground and then your flagpole in it. I've had this for years because my flagpole is in the middle of my lawn. Just get the correct size for your pole.
I put together 1/2" PVC, made a square, at one end I have a hose bib, connect to hose and after I drive during winter highways and byways, I wash the undercarriage of the vehicle with this PVC contraption, I also added an ad hoc PVC handle to move it underneath the vehicle. I have been able to reduce the undercarriage rust in all my vehicles.Oh, I drilled small holes all around the square to shoot the water up under the carriage.
I have been looking at wire racks to hold spools of wire, they are very expensive even at Harbor Freight. Similar to your ribbon/tape holder, an upright rack with whatever size pvc fits your spools. each horizontal pipe can be different sizes for different spools. I'm gonna make a 3 tier one and I'll send you a pic of the finished pic (if I can figure out how to)
Hey, I love your channel. Could you do a video discussing the difference between the different types of pvc? I know there are several out there (gray, red, sched 40, CPVC, etc.), it would be nice to know which ones to get for which diy projects and no one really seems to cover that.
For the flag. If you could figure out a way to add a light to illuminate the flag at night, that would be great. Love the Idea. Keep up the videos. Ssgt. Wilson USAF
I need a small screen tent idea I can make out of PVC to use to keep bugs off me and my grandson when sitting outside especially at night. When my daughters were kids, I got a large umbrella and sewed some mesh all around with little fishing weights on the bottom so it didn't fly around in the wind and called it a "Bugbrella". LOL When camping, watching fireworks or sitting in the back yard, I'd stick the pole in the ground, put my lawn chair under it and keep the bugs off me and my kids. Now that I have a grandson, 3 months old, I need some kind of screened tent for one that I can sit in while holding my grandson in the back yard or hopefully portable for camping, picnic's, etc. Kinda of like a one-person screen tent preferably with a screen top for star gazing. Please help?
+Amy Hebert A one person screened tent ... hummm ... I will have to think about that one, but I really like that idea. And the Bugbrella is a very good idea. I am surprized you did not try to market it.
Specific Love Creations I'm always inventing stuff out of necessity but learned to narrow it down to only a few main projects for patents. Do you have a book? If not, I hope you will make one, you already have the step-by-step pictures (or stills from your videos).
+Amy Hebert I have thought about a book and have a little experience in that area, but there is a lot involved with writing, editting, printing, and then marketing. I find the videos a lot easier and more fun to work on. But I guess there could be a chance in the future.
Thank you. This video has so many projects I can use. I bought a lot of 1/2 inch pvc and connectors to make for some tall gates for a couple doorways to keep cats out of those rooms, but they were too heavy to manage, so we are going with security doors.
Now I can make a flag pole, hat rack, from the ceiling storage rack, bag support, etc.

Very nice instructions. Thanks. Do you have a video on making a pvc table easel for artists?
Is this what you are looking for: ruclips.net/video/lLKpRaVgvS0/видео.html

These are brilliant! I made a window perch for my parrot many years ago so he could sit and watch the outside birds and squirrels at the feeder.
nicely done
Could you make a couple of those handles big enough to carry a mattress? Seems like that would be a great idea too. I hate carrying those things.
I really like these pvc uses. I am always using it for something and you've given me many more!

Great idea for leaf picking. Try using two racks like a scoop and you'll p/u more leaves at one time😊

SOOO COOL! You should do do a fish feeder like the deer feeder but smaller.
+Colby Tart I am not sure how that would work, can you explain more?
So I was thinking take 1/2 inch PVC pipe, and take a drill (with a bit the size of the fish food) randomly placed holes in the part of the pipe. Next put a end cap on the end so the fish can't swim up it. Then you should use on of the PVC ball valves so whenever you turn the valve, the fish food falls in to the tank.(you would have a container on the top filled with the food. And that's pretty much it.
It would probably be easier to just drop the food in with your hand but it would still be very cool!
I love these pvc vids! Regarding the wild animal feeder-it needs a cover(?) to deflect, prevent water from getting in the feeder opening! Take a piece of 4" x 8" pvc pipe-cut it open lengthwise and using a heat gun, shape it to form a half circle and attach to feeder above the opening. Leave enough room for largest animals to have head clearance!
If you make a half circle cut into the upright tube and insert the "rain guard" jto provide support for the guard and using PVC cement to secure it, you will have a nice rain guard without blocking the feeder tube itself!

You can also use 4 inch length 1 inch wide pipe for coping saw blades. You can alter the measurements to accommodate jigsaw blades or sawzall blades or even regulat drill bits.. I also use a 2 foot length of pvc with holes and slots drilled into it to hold screwdrivers and chisels.

I enjoy your ideas and being a mechanic, some required little modifications. My question is, where can I buy some of the larger diameter pipes and test caps? I've tried our retailers but they only carry the basic everyday use sizes. Thanks in advance and I will be sure to share my ideas with you.
I am not sure. Maybe you can purchase online and have it shipped to store.
That fish tube is a good idea, but I would have to find a larger pipe as my Koi are already 5 to 6" in diameter. Koi get huge if the pond is sized right for them.
I like the handle the best for carrying stuff.
I made those exact flag stands about 7 years ago to bring to the NASCAR races. To improve the spin of the PVC pole use a washer that fits around the steel rods on the ground (I used Rebar from Lowe's), that way when the wind blows the pole can spin and the flag won't get tangled up. :-)

I saw your vedio it is very important for human life makes it.
I used 1” pvc for my sheers behind my drapes. Lightweight, 120” length, under $5.
What kind of caps are you referring to? I can't quite make out what you are calling them and where would I get them? Great ideas.
Test caps
love your ideas.. was wondering if you can make a repair bike stand for mtb.
I will keep it in mind
+Specific Love Creations thanks.. will keep an eye.
Your hat rack would also work as a purse organizer for the lady's closet. 😎
i was just about to ask for a pvc hat rack ... thank you
I have the same flag holder with 2 additional pieces added. Stick your rebar into the ground slide a large washer over the rebar. Than slide a piece of pic over the rebar say 18" long, than slide your flag pole over the 18" piece. It swivels nicely when the wind picks up.

It’s really amazing what you can do with PVC pipe I made one for my fire pit for my fire sticks for hotdogs or anything else a fire poker maybe you could do something like that show everyone
where do you find the corner pieces you used on the yard bag frame. I have been looking for these. They are not a normal plumbing fitting you can find at a home improvement store. thanks
+Dennis M If your store does no have them, you can find them on Amazon
wow dude i never seen so many great ideas i been binge watching your channel im def ganna make a bunch of your ideas they all look so kool thanx for the great ideas dude !!!
+Raymond J Thank you very much
awesome video as usual!!! i was thinking can you make a pistol version of your PVC sniper rifle? thanks!!
+laszlo pasztor Can you give me a little more detail on your thought?
i was thinking like a much smaller vision that could fold up and could fit in ones pocket kinda like your mashmellow pistol but for you quick change clips for airsoft!!!
+laszlo pasztor Ok, maybe
Thanks!
A quick way to put in a flagpole or other pole and make it removable for cutting grass etc., put a piece about 6" long in the ground and then your flagpole in it. I've had this for years because my flagpole is in the middle of my lawn. Just get the correct size for your pole.
I put together 1/2" PVC, made a square, at one end I have a hose bib, connect to hose and after I drive during winter highways and byways, I wash the undercarriage of the vehicle with this PVC contraption, I also added an ad hoc PVC handle to move it underneath the vehicle. I have been able to reduce the undercarriage rust in all my vehicles.Oh, I drilled small holes all around the square to shoot the water up under the carriage.
Great idea
We're building a dog cart for my dog that's paralyzed in the back end but you can make any kind of cart easily
I have been looking at wire racks to hold spools of wire, they are very expensive even at Harbor Freight. Similar to your ribbon/tape holder, an upright rack with whatever size pvc fits your spools. each horizontal pipe can be different sizes for different spools. I'm gonna make a 3 tier one and I'll send you a pic of the finished pic (if I can figure out how to)
awesome job my friend ,i really enjoy watching all your vids !!!
+Rick Guidry Thanks
Hey, I love your channel. Could you do a video discussing the difference between the different types of pvc? I know there are several out there (gray, red, sched 40, CPVC, etc.), it would be nice to know which ones to get for which diy projects and no one really seems to cover that.
I will look into that
I use long sections of PVC pipe and put a cap on one end then a screw on cap on the other to take fishing poles on airplanes
and ship.
For the flag. If you could figure out a way to add a light to illuminate the flag at night, that would be great. Love the Idea. Keep up the videos.

First, thank you for your service.
Second, that is an excellent idea. I am not sure of the design as of yet, but I plan to work on it. Thank you
I need a small screen tent idea I can make out of PVC to use to keep bugs off me and my grandson when sitting outside especially at night. When my daughters were kids, I got a large umbrella and sewed some mesh all around with little fishing weights on the bottom so it didn't fly around in the wind and called it a "Bugbrella". LOL When camping, watching fireworks or sitting in the back yard, I'd stick the pole in the ground, put my lawn chair under it and keep the bugs off me and my kids. Now that I have a grandson, 3 months old, I need some kind of screened tent for one that I can sit in while holding my grandson in the back yard or hopefully portable for camping, picnic's, etc. Kinda of like a one-person screen tent preferably with a screen top for star gazing. Please help?
+Amy Hebert A one person screened tent ... hummm ... I will have to think about that one, but I really like that idea. And the Bugbrella is a very good idea. I am surprized you did not try to market it.
Specific Love Creations I'm always inventing stuff out of necessity but learned to narrow it down to only a few main projects for patents. Do you have a book? If not, I hope you will make one, you already have the step-by-step pictures (or stills from your videos).
+Amy Hebert I have thought about a book and have a little experience in that area, but there is a lot involved with writing, editting, printing, and then marketing. I find the videos a lot easier and more fun to work on. But I guess there could be a chance in the future.
