    i was thinking of dumpsters and jobsites, but i wasnt sure if there would be enough scrap lying around to make it worth going after.

    Default Quik-Crete & PVC

    I go by our local Lowe's Home Improvement Center and buy the damaged sacks of Quik-Crete for a little over a dollar a bag. Most just have a small hole in the sack.

    As far as PVC my wife stopped by a local plumbing supply dealer and he told her that she could have anything damaged out in the yard. She came home with a whole pick-up bed full!

    Watch for your underground utility companies. They were working in my neighborhood in preparation for widening a road. They had HUGE spools of a orange tube. They run it underground and cut off the excess. I asked them if I could have it and they were all for that. Otherwise, they have to collect it up and haul it off.

    My brother is a plumber so I have access to an endless supply of shorter pieces. The josbsite dunpsters are worth looking at if you have the time.

    I am a big fan of the cane now though.

    Don't forget to ask anybody you know who works for city water departments.
