Cut the larger pipe into the following increments:
Cut in half three of the 10-foot PVC pipes making six 5-foot sections of PVC piping to be used as the top and bottom of the frame.
Cut the remaining piping into 6-foot increments making 6 6-foot sections of piping to be used as the sides of the frame.
Cut the remaining piping into 1-foot increments making 24 1-foot sections of piping to be used as feet. - 2). Attach two of the 6-foot side pieces to two of the 5-foot top and bottom pieces. Use two 90-degree elbows to connect the pieces at the top corners, and two T couplers to connect at the bottom corners.
- 3). Assemble your support feet by attaching 1-foot increments of piping to a T coupler. The piping should be inserted so that it forms the base of a standing letter T when attached to the coupler. Insert end caps into open ends of the T coupler.
- 4). Attach feet by inverting the T and connecting piping to the open coupler.
- 5). Repeat steps 2 through 4 to create two more frames.
- 6). Arrange the frames as an open-sided box. Drape mover's blankets over each frame, and keep them in place using clamps.
- 7). If added stability is desired, attach frames to each other using bungee cables.
- 8). Attach a clamp light to front frame and insert a bulb. Drape a final blanket over the top of the frames.
