"JamesgangNC" wrote in message news  Looks like you can get sched 40 pvc up to 16" in diameter in 20 ft lengths. I was only able to find wholesale skid pricing, not retail. It worked out to individual prices, all 20 ft lengths: 10" = $8.20 each skid qty 220 12" = $23.15 each skid qty 120 14" = $54.68 each skid qty 60 16" = $71.50 each skid qty 60 You could probably build a full size pontoon with the bigger sizes. Only trouble is that skid is about a ton of pipe. Is there a uv issue with pvc? Guess you could paint it. "Ed Edelenbos" wrote in message ... dh@. wrote in message ...

Sponsons have become a nasty word in the kayak news groups because there were some safety accusations made concerning their lack of use. That or you could make something up with PVC pipe and end caps. ( The latter is great for Hiding guns in. (Water tight and tough should you want to burry them : )). I'm looking for something more about this size: http://www.islander-pontoon-boats.com/hydro-bike.html Maybe PVC would work... I'd like to hear of what you might find (or what anyone might know about pricing for 12"d pipe.) A quick calculation says that a 10 foot section would be (roughly) good for 500 lbs at full submersion. A pair would be good for 500 lbs at half submersion... I couldn't find the weight per foot of the pipe itself. If it is cost effective, I could see a project or 2 that it would be perfect for. Ed Go to an irrigation supply company. |
