Things You'll Need

Instructions

1

Start by cutting the plywood down to size.
2

Once the plywood is cut to size, find the middle of one of the long sides of the plywood and measure 6 inches in. Mark this spot, this is the location for the base.
3

Now that the location for the base has been determined, drill four holes for the base.

* Also drill four corresponding holes in the electrical box cover. 4

With the electrical box cover below the plywood, insert the four bolts upwards through the plywood.
5

Attach the base to the plywood with the nuts. Next, drill two holes for the carrying handle. Attach the carrying handle.
6

Screw the 4 1/2 foot section of galvanized steel pipe into the base.
7

Screw the 90 degree connection onto the top of the steel pipe.
8

Screw the 12 inch galvanized steel pipe into the 90 degree connection. The frame is now complete.
9

Now, on to the clamp. Cut the PVC tee in half as shown in the pictures. Be sure cut directly down the middle. Watch your fingers.
10

Prime the 2 inch PVC tee, the 2 inch by 2 inch long PVC pipe, and the fitting to connect the two. Add cement and hold everything together. Work quickly since PVC cement dries rapidly.
11

Once the PVC cement has dried, drill holes for the hinges and the draw clasp.
12

Pop rivet the hinges and draw clasp to the PVC piping. Insert the pipe insulation.

Congratulations! Now that the clamp is done you're ready to go! Simply insert the clamp over the end of the galvanized steel and let the repairs begin!
