The purple primer is for etching the pipe prior glue up. You don't need to sand. I was a landscape contractor and have glued thousands of connections.Bill

I'm all for a DIY solution. I have some PVC rod holders myself. But for those listening, skip the primer/cleaner! No need for the expense, mess or ugly purple stains it leaves. You don't need this to be a perfect bond. You can wipe it with a rag or even some alcohol if you're really worried about it. But I challenge anyone to pull apart unprimed PVC that was only glued. I'm old enough to remember doing plumbing before there was primer. We just sanded these parts and glued them together. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for the observation. We aren’t sealing water pipe either, so probably overdoing it with the primer.

Or use clear primer if you already got some. No plumbing expections here.

Once you make the rod holders , get a 5 gallon pail ,nut and bolt the holders on a angle in the upper 3/4 area of the pail. Make sure the rod holders do not go higher than the pail. That way you have a three in one pail.....pail can be used to carry your equipment to the water.......1 rod holder..2 fill with some water to use as live well ( add a aerator ) 3 portable seat if needed.........we use this idea ice fishing in Canada, this way you can see your rod better and keeps the rod out of dirt or off the ice. 5 gallon pail can also be used as a night light if you attach a dollar store solar light or glow sticks 👍👍🇨🇦

I might suggest that you get a 6" piece of dowel and glue it into the end of the half inch pipe before cutting it on an angle to reinforce that stick in tip. You may need to sand it to fit.

Nice,I have a hack challenge if you have time.Make a rod holder for on the hip you can put on belt that will hold a surf casting larger spinning rod that has a ball on butt end.See these for sale but not sure if a surf rod will fit in size of them.

My dad uses a metal fence post and welded a bolt to it. Then he puts some screw in rod holders on it. He has to use a sledge hammer to put a rod holder in the river bank where he goes because it's so rocky.

Here it is sand. You might make one and let me know how it works in harder dirt. I would think unless it is rocky, it would work. Thanks for watching.

As a professional plumbing…do not sand pvc when using primer and glue. It’s unnecessary
@JerrysRetirementWisdom656 ай бұрын
Thanks for the advice. Keep watching!

Not necessary to sand the pvc. Only necessary when plumbing because of pressure.

I enjoyed watching your video, good instructions, educated me on rod holder. Beats the old forked stick I grew up using on farm ponds and Duck River in Tn.👍👍

I use a "y" with a small straight piece connected to it Then I cut much of the y out to make a rod holder. Then I cut a lot of the straight pipe so it will fit over a square railing. Then I drill a couple holes in it and run a bolt and nut with wings on it to tighten around a dock railing. I tie a rope with a carabiner onto the dock and clip the carabiner to the reel. I lost two combos one year before I did this.
