Well that is not what I was thinking of.
I thought if two ways while I was working. One would be to NOT drill all of those pesky holes. Get a 10-24 tap drill holes in the fittings and thread them then use the 10-24 screws as set screws. Two in each fitting. An 8-32 screw might even be better or thumb screws. Instead of a 90 at the top use a Tee. This way you could have a long stick of PVC and just slide the Tee up and down. You could even use a hose clamp if you wanted to. Not to insult but if you or anyone else doesn't understand I can draw a picture. I cannot express too much how everyone needs to have a screw pitch gauge. I keep one in my pocket like a knife. Worth |
