Default Tailgate Party Idea

The Villages Florida

The Villages Florida

The Villages Florida


The Villages Florida

Material List:
1-3/4 " PVC Sch 40 (10')
4-3/4" PVC sch 40 elbows

Long sides are 32"
Short sides are 16"

Above dimensions may vary for different windshields.

Don't cement parts for take apart capabilty and storage. If you want pure white pipe with no writing on it get a can of PVC cleaner. Candy stripe can be done in most popular colors with colored vinyl tape available in most electrical departments of local stores.

Like most clever ideas, it seems so obvious AFTER I have seen it , but I would have never thought of it.

I will try it out at the next Polo match we visit, thanks for sharing.

Very cool. I want one of those. Handy, you should make those and sell them or take orders at the TOTV monthly get togethers.

I agree with JUREK, you should definitely patent this idea and find some manufacturer to work with you to get this mass marketed. You could make some good money, IMHO. Great job John!

Thank you all for the nice comments,however, success and gobs of money would spoil my humble lifestyle, my ego would burst, and my adorable character would be ruined. (Did I mention humility?)

Great idea.

I have been looking into how to mount an old wash tub full of ice and a beer keg on the back of a cart.

If you ever need any help testing a prototype, just let me know.
