Flooding a thread with useless comments and insults is unneeded.

Constructive criticism is fine. But Criticism for the sake of criticism turns the forum to trash.

Mossyxj you should have used black pvc pipe and added a fill and drain valve, could have filled the setup with water, and then from being in the sun all day it would heat up. could then use it for shower water at camp, that evening. that would be cool.

.. I can agree. Put a release valve on it and a detachable low GPM shower head on it and quick shower.

Most people have no vision or creativity, therefore when the see something different they immediately start bashing it!

Freud would tell us there is something broken inside them that causes this behavior!

What's the advanced fab bs? Because it not metal and it's not ordinary it's not fab?

Clearly those two have a pirate 4x4 mantality, it's pretty disgusting

I think they are just angry at life. Or maybe jealous because the PVC glue will hold better than their welds.

I was kind of on the fence but if it also doubled as a way to haul water. that is really genius. How many gallons could it hold? The possibilities could be great. I myself camp with a trailer behind me and really only throw a few things on top for a day trip type scenario. So The water hauler rack would be Something I would be seriously interested in making.

You can't make a roof rack out of PVC!!!!!!!!!! ZOMG!!

Just like you can't wheel unibody


people.........

good idea man hey I would never have one, but I don't need one either.

Homebrew is about building your own gear....... not about showing pictures of S****y MIG welds so other "experts" tell you how sweet you are.
