[cool][#0000ff]I have a steady procession of Utah tubers and tooners going in and out of my "tubeatorium" (garage) to get their new rides all tricked out. I have dealt with just about every configuration of frame, pockets, covers, etc. that you can imagine. Once you know a bit about PVC and the things you can do with it, you can work out an efficient setup for just about any craft.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff][url "http://www.bigfishtackle.com/cgi-bin/gforum/gforum.cgi?post=514396#514396"]HERE IS A LINK[/url] to a post I made last year, including some pictures, of some of the mods I helped another fellow BFTer make to his toon. You can see how I cut the PVC fittings and drilled them to create a quick and easy connection for adding the other goodies. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]A lot of tooners get all twitchy about drilling holes in the frames. Understandable. But there are a lot of holes already in most frames...bigger than a few pilot holes for small screws. They will not compromise the strength of the frame.[/#0000ff]
