Does anyone know where to purchase Ø10"-Ø12" PVC tubes?
I'd like to make a couple storage tubes for the trailer to hold sails, geat, etc.
One end of the tube would need to have a threaded cap and the other end would have a glued end-cap.

I've looked on-line and can't seem to find anything.

Thanks,
Scott Waterhouse

Look in the yellow pages for plumbing supply houses (ones that supply contractors).  Many will take credit cards for one time purchases.

McMaster Carr stocks 8" drain pipe (Part # 48925K46) and will sell to anyone with a credit card.  http://www.mcmaster.com/

You would be better of finding a local supplier as large piupe will need to be shipped by truck as its too long for UPS\Fedex.

US Plastics has 10ft sections of large - up to 24" dia PVC duct pipes and some fittings.

might need to improvise something for the threaded cap

Thanks guys...
If anyone has made a similar storage tube, I'd love to hear what you used.
Thanks

Dan, if you're Plan B, you could give Todd Salzman a call. He has one or two of these set up.
