How many of you use PVC pipe to make what you need for camp? I've used it to make a shower/privacy stall, drying racks, and even deadman anchors. Let's see some photos of your handy work!

I made 3 water tubes 10"x6ft on the roof rack for showers and cleaning. I use truck claws on my landrover,xj and f350. They get me out of every thing.

Where did you get the 10" pipe? I'm having a really hard time finding it, unless I'm willing to buy a pallet.

Someone brought up traction aides and these are what I use. I prefer these over maxtrcs, they make truck claws for semis and they help me on my trip to Anchorage Alaska. I have snow chains but they did not help me where the claws got me up and 8% grade hill.

I can save you some searching. Answer these questions: 1. Is it fun? 2. Are you in CA? If the answer to both questions is "yes" then it is likely a felony in CA.
