In this video I show you how after some testing iv come up with a method to make to the hoops for a hoop house from pvc pipe without connectors which makes it stronger and cheaper to build.

@FixItYerself 3 года назад

good idea! you could also just buy long enough pipes, but i guess if you really need something bigger than 20ft arches, this is a good idea

Nice idea 👍

This is a great video on how to NOT make a pvc hoophouse

How do you secure the pipes into the ground?

@pappy5948 3 года назад

What if you use the heat gun to form your hoops rather than bending the pvc?

@sugiishwaramohottiarachchi59 3 года назад

Can use PVC 15*40

Nice job - where abouts in uk are you? Also is this waste pipe - could you do the same with 20mm pvc white conduit?

@FieldtoFarm_UK 4 года назад

Thanks we are near Birmingham and its 32mm solvent weld pipe. 20mm would be too thin I'd imagine you would need alot more internal wood supports 👍

Has this held up after 2 years? Over here in Canada, a pipe costs approx 10$ for a 10 ft (3m) length, and I can get fittings for 0.50-1.50$. Seems like if something was going to break, I would WANT the fittings to break - much cheaper/faster to replace and less need to fiddle around with the covering, compared to having to remove an entire melted/deformed length of pipe (and whatever it used to connect to, on both ends)! Also, what size of pipe were you using?

@FieldtoFarm_UK Год назад

Iv taken them down now as iv built a proper livestock house, but I would sat just buy the steel tubes instead defo won't put up with Canada weather without alot more wood support inside

@@FieldtoFarm_UK thanks so much for the reply and tip! I'm looking to build my own custom greenhouse since my beds are non-standard size, and this has been very helpful for planning! I'll be building something that has semi-permanent detachable parts so I can take it down during the middle of summer and heavy winter... I do agree metal would really be better if only I could afford it !

@dennytjokrowidjojo3057 3 года назад

wich inch pipe do u used?

@joewoodchuck3824 3 года назад

I'm not all in with the joining method. There are enough people who aren't skilled enough to take on the heated joints for want of a $0.50 coupling. Don't let him tell you they aren't as strong either.

@FieldtoFarm_UK 3 года назад

ur wrong on both fronts the couplings/ joiners are £2.30 each almost half the pipe cost and they are defo weaker than the pipe as they are made from 2 separately molded pieces joined together which creates a weak spot along the edges of the join and pipe is a single cast so no weak areas.

@joewoodchuck3824 3 года назад

@@FieldtoFarm_UK Your plumbing supplies must be very different from the U.S. then. Our couplings would be the strongest part of two pieces of pipe joined together. I didn't mean to misspeak of what you have there..

@FieldtoFarm_UK 3 года назад

This sort of pipe is only used for sink or shower waste water at low pressure usually here so is thinner than US pipe or so iv read

@joewoodchuck3824 3 года назад

@@FieldtoFarm_UK Ah, there's the difference. We have thin wall drain pipe too. I didn't realize that's what you were using.
