HOW-TO: 5-Step DIY Rod Tube

Written by Pete McDonald on January 1st, 2010

1. Go to hardware store.

2. Buy PVC stuff

3. Glue PVC stuff together

4. Breathe in PVC Glue, depress nervous system

5. Adorn with accumulated stickers

[Inspiration derived from Urbn Outdoors last spring. He went further, making rod socks and streamer cases.]

UPDATE: Original inspiration goes WAY BACK to the Headmaster of the Brownline School, JP the Roughfisher. Here’s his original post, with apologies for not remembering where I got the idea.

    1. Good stuff.
    2. I prefer a bag full of lacquer, myself.

    but I got a question…

    Are you an 8-ball man? Or a 9-ball kinda fellow? Or maybe a nice game of one pocket is the thing for you…

  2. Nice .. I was wondering if breathing pvc glue was a mandatory step in this process!

  3. What? That’s not a pool table man, don’t worry about it. And I never play for money.

  4. It clears the mind

    Next time I go to Florida I’m going to have to do this, this is probably the cheapest way and it looks like the PVC pipping is really tough.

    Brunswick? Leather drop pockets. Sweet PVC Cue case.

  7. Alex Landeen says:

    Ah, so that’s how it is.
