I find it easier to pound in the pvc, if you cut the bottom at a 45 degree angle instead of straight across. The sharper point make pounding it in easier.

If anyone is interested in making the 1st arch should remember that they make GREEN zip ties.

@user-iy7gk9tk7g 6 ай бұрын

The indoor arch way was pretty cool. It looks like if you want to make it taller you wouldn't need to use the full circle. Prop up on something and wrap them like presents. Then do another bow on the bottom where it can hold it into place as well.

Hi there. Hey i want to encourage you to make several channels. Make a news channel and a story time channel. Just read and pretty much anything and make long videos. You can make clips of the longer vids for shorts to gain followers but.. your voice has a certian smoothness that many people would be happy to listen to. Doesnt matter really what you read or say, people will listen because your voice for whatever reason is soothing loke the older radio ahow host that many people would listen to and fall asleep at the sound of the radio show host soothing voice.

It's easier to use rebar vs. pvc in the ground. Also, if you use rebar, then you will have a U-shaped arch vs. square and don't need the elbows.

Skip the elbows and just arch the PVC over the sidewalk; use a heat gun to soften the PVC if needed. Skip the garland too and using painters tape to paint as candy canes. Less tacky and a bit more festive.

Yes PVC pipe cracks when hit by a hammer. Any tube, short of thick metal, will crack, bend, snap or be crushed when hit by a hammer. To help “prevent” this from happening simply place a piece of wood, a 2X4 or 1/2” plywood for example, on the top of the PVC pipe. Now hammer the wood not the pipe. It’s that simple

@Nic7320 7 ай бұрын

Put a fitting on the end when you're hammering the pipe in the ground. It will protect the pipe.

My neighbor was sitting at his gate watching and got out and came over and said son why don’t u put 1 end in your tail pipe and warm it up. Why didn’t I think of that. Is was freezing when I did this and after I did that it just went together so easy

Sadly, I didn't like either. The square arch did nothing for me and the one in the house is too clumsy and intrusive. As someone else said, I would have decorated the columns and forgone the archway entirely. It seems to be more an archway to do balloons on, not garland. But this is my own personal taste. If they love it, great. It's just not for me.
