    Looks nice, thanks for sharing. I would not have glued the coupler in the middle. I would secure it with white electrical tape; this way you can take it apart after XMAS for storage.

    What am absolutely fantastic video. A. Why did I never think of using rebar and PVC tubing and B. Who else wants to live in this neighbourhood? Talk about coming together. Brilliant video.

  • @cherylmorris7318
    @cherylmorris7318 2 года назад +1

    No plumbers will not laugh when you said to wipe it off. Because if you cut the pipes as well, it leaves shavings and its better to wipe them clean before glueing. You made a very informative video. I never seen blue glue before, in Mi it is clear. And holding it only takes a few seconds of turning and its on. You can buy cheap garden stakes so you don't have to cut rebar. Home Depot for $2.98 each. Better than all that work you did.

    Important to let your viewers to know what kind of blade you’re using on the saw, as a wood cutting blade could chip metal and injure someone, great video I just think at that point you lost me using a Skill saw to cut rebar. I Recommend an angle grinder with a metal cutting 4-5” circular blade. Anyways I’ll take the rest of the info and make my arches tonight thank you so much for the time you put into this.

    • @nachosvideo
      @nachosvideo  4 года назад +2

      Most of them were done with a hacksaw, the Skill saw used on the video had a special blade for metal. but whatever works for you, if I had an angle grinder believe me I would have used it.

    Can do it without such long rebar, and gluing your pvc makes it harder to store unless you cut it.
