 With a few simple fittings, common home-improvement-store PVC pipe can be treated much like building blocks.

For anyone who needs insight and a few tips on working with PVC, this new book covers simple creations like chicken feeders and waterers, to more complex builds like a rolling workshop table. With easy to follow instructions, parts lists, and photographs of completed projects, anyone can build and create. Discover how to make practical creations, like a step-stool, safety gate or gardening caddy, fun, fanciful projects, like a rocket launcher, water table, or soccer goal, or homestead projects like pet washers, chicken feeders, birdhouses, and hanging herb gardens. Each project features step-by-step instructions, parts lists and photographs. With more than 50 inventive creations to try, the possibilities never end! And as PVC is a durable, easy to purchase item, these projects are not only useful, but will last a long time!
