    Default My first 5 condo's I made last week!!!


    Only cost me 6$ to make all of them, had to buy the cement and thats it! I spoke with a local paint company and was provided with some five gallon buckets and a plumbing company in tulsa allowed me the PVC free of charge. The yellow pvc was found rolled on the side of the highway, like buried treasure.



    Ive made quite a few more, actually had to slow down building them, they are taking over my back yard. gotta stop or my entire 3 acres will be covered in pvc condos

    Get-R-Built...Kinda like Get-R-Done...I like to keep several dozen ready to drop JUST IN CASE, one night we get bored and want to go on a dumping rampage, otherwise, since I put 5 of those in a spot, I use them up pretty quickly. I would go with a square "MOLD" or rectangular really, you will be able to get more "space" between the PVC branches allowing the fish to get in there good. Plus you maxamize your surface area that way...I started out using the SAME stuff you are, but after seeing what Krappy Krazy was doing/using I quickly realized how much more effective the Plastic DishPans are.

    BUT as for the yellow style of pipe, any base would be good.

    You can do the same thing with a torch to the white pvc...well kinda

    Just got one question for Indiana guys. Is it legal to put these in a Ind. state owned lake? Or do you have to sneak them out under dark to drop them in. I would love to drop a few into the lakes I fish.
