This is on awesome build. I thought I was a big spender dropping 6k on my 240. Maybe one day I can do a 50k build.
[QUOTE=Raptor72;20276672]I had no idea that PVC could be heated and bent like that. I'll keep that in mind for a future build.

Hey guys... No, it was regular Schedule 40 1 1/2" PVC. They heated it up using a blowtorch and it became incredibly pliable.

It reminded me of one one those pool toys..."noodles". It stays like that for a minute or so before it cools. It is hot and you need to very careful not to burn yourself or to melt anything it touches.

Glad you are both following along!
