We've done a few tutorials here and there over the last couple of years. Here are a few that come to mind. You might also check out some of the community kits which have instructions with each of them. Let... (More)
We've seen builds that have been outside for years with no sign of rust. Both the silver and black fittings are coated with a rust/corrosion preventative. Over time if that coating gets scratched off with use then rust will develop.... (More)
Hi Mike, your outdoor shower project was featured in Episode 111. Here is a link to the video. Your build starts at 2:20
Hi there, we've had a few different builders share some solutions for this. Most often people use the adjustable angle hinge connector - https://makerpipe.com/collections/modular-pipe-fittings/products/adjustable-angle-connector-hinge-connector44
We see them used in outdoor builds all the time. Both the silver and black connectors and hardware have a corrosion resistant finish. Of course, if the finish gets scratched or rubbed after reuse etc. then you'll notice some rust... (More)
It will be a while. Probably sometime next year.
@Raymond Fast19 has a good write up for doing large radius bends. Here is a link. https://connect.makerpipe.com/post/i-was-finally-able-to-pull-the-trigger-on-this-trellis-i-had-to-wait-until---626cb95b3bf5c7c6a36e7f0b74
Hi Raymond, I just measured and the end clamp is a hair over 3" long. The puzzle piece clamp is 2-1/4" long
Hey Janean, thanks for the question. We talked about your build during the live stream on Monday and came up with a few ideas. If the stand is going to be in the same place for a little while, we... (More)
Hi Merrick, thanks for the question. Whenever I did the testing I did not sand between coats. That would've been something good to try. If you end up going that route, let us know how it works.Â
Hi there, thanks for the question. You could use the 3/4" EMT Coupling that we make along with the 3/4 to 1/2 adapter shim.Â
We don't have plans for one of those right now, but I bet you can find one for boat railing that fits 3/4" EMT Conduit.Â
Great job on the project! I’m sorry to hear the bolts are starting to rust. They have a similar coating as the connectors and shouldn’t be prone to corrosion. We would be happy to replace them. If you could send... (More)
I just measured and it looks like 2-1/4" when in the T position.
3/4" Pex tubing from Lowes will allow you to shim down to 1/2" EMT
That size is not common at local hardware or home stores, but you can find some online and maybe order a bundle. Also check with your local electrical supply stores. I am sure you will have some luck there.
We don't know the exact scale of the Mini's unfortunately. Thanks for the question
