PVC fishing kit

[AlphaWolf]

Hi everybody, I'm new to these forums and I thought I'd show you all how I made a little PVC fishing kit like this:

Cut a piece of 40mm or 1"-1,5" thick PVC pipe about 16-30 cm long. (I used a hacksaw)

Sand it down with 100-220 grit sandpaper to get a good surface for the spray paint to stick on.

After that you glue all the parts on with PVC glue/cement. (you also can and should sand down the individual parts)

You can also punch holes with a hot nail in the screw-on cap if you want to attach a lanyard to the PVC fishing kit.

Now it's time to paint it. I used a dark green spray paint as a base coat. (apply as many coats as you want)

To create a camo pattern use a different colour and cardboard cutouts or real leaves.

Here it is so far, without a lanyard and fishing line attached (which you can hold down with a ranger band)

Please do tell me what you think of this little fishing kit.

Rock On,
David

Hi David, Welcome and enjoy.

Thats a great idea for storing fishing kit, or anything else.

I am sure I saw something like them being made in the first terminator film.

Very nice though.

As David is a new member all his initial posts are moderated.

He edited his original post so it went back into the moderation queue until approval.

I am sitting around a campfire (in a freezing wind) with my iPad doing a bit of moderation now so you should be able to see it now. Need to put my glove back on now before my fingertips freeze .
