    Either contact the manufacturer or make your own with 3/4" PVC piping, maybe 1" depending on weight, elbows and some joint compound. Measure, cut, and connect.
     
  4. I wouldnt make them from pvc. Id use metal or buy lumber and make them that way. Id use 2x2 (if you can get that. If not then 2x3) lumber. Lumber is cheap and easy to work with. Question, why didnt they come with.. Ps ive seen people use lumber and toss the poles out because lumber could stand more weight. I was thinking of switching to wood myself.

  10. Yea if you can find some good heavy pipe to fit in there might just work. I cant see why it wouldn't. Just make sure the dale stays in one spot insideSent from my SGH-I747M using Grasscity Forum mobile app
