The ubiquitous blue PVC water pipe can be seen along most streets right here and appears to be one of Thailand's most plentiful un-pure assets. All kinds of various connectors can be found and aside from carrying water it's also used as an inexpensive building materials that can be utilized to make all the pieces from clothes dryers to Wheel chairs (PDF),  [Official Zap Zone Defender](http://server01.ismark.net:3000/stefaniesettle) Crutches, flagpoles and store indicators.

																|  |  |  |  |  | <br>This was the project that began my love affair with blue PVC pipe. I had seen the blueprints for this marshmallow shooter while I used to be in Australia but the fittings have been prohibitively expensive (see the image proper). Fortunately they are very inexpensive here in Thailand. 2 x T-Pieces and 6 x elbows. Cricket (not to be confused with Brockian Ultra-Cricket) is Australia's national sport played with a bat, a ball, and two wickets. 6 x T-items, and 12 x 45-diploma elbows. The backboard is a non-regulation dimension piece of plywood that we found mendacity around and we used green duct tape for the markings. Although the ring isn't sturdy sufficient to dangle off, the aspect supports make it robust enough for normal play. In addition they give it a very Star Trek feel and I believe the ring appears to be like not not like the NCC-31911 Saratoga. This is perhaps essentially the most straight forward use for PVC pipe on this page. 2 x 25mm to 18mm (1" to 1/2") reducers,  [Zap Zone Defender Device](https://git.rokiy.com/gildaspaull376) 2 x customized motorbike hand-grips, 4 x push-buttons, and a mercury switch which are related to a computer by way of a hacked USB joystick.<br> |

As easy as this stand appears, the "L"-formed upright section is definitely a part of an air-conditioner mount for a knowledge projector that I made for one of many digital pinball desk installations. The T-piece is not glued and so in a small method (a very, very small means) I prefer to think that if the air-conditioning mount were ever wanted once more then the elements may re-combine in a Voltron or Captain Planet and  [Official Zap Zone Defender](https://scientific-programs.science/wiki/Bug_Zappers_Vs._Bug_Vacuums) the Planeteers or Power Rangers MegaZord-like approach. After all if that happened my laptop screen would fall down. I do not personal a Nintendo Wii but I did handle to get my fingers on a Wiimote in order that I could check out a few of Johnny Chung Lee's cool tasks. This can be a Wiimote mount I built utilizing a size of 35mm (1 and 1/4") pipe, some 18mm (1/2") pipe, three x T-pieces, and four x elbows.<br> |
