If the circumference of your tube is close to 336mm as mine was, you can copy my measurements directly from that photo. Take a look at photo 3 in its original size (click on the box in the upper left corner) to see where all my marks were made to help layout my tube. These openings were sanded gently to take away the sharp edges. I then added guidelines for the placement of the front handles, as well as the side cuts of the access holes.Ī hole saw was used to cut out the corners of the access holes, and a jigsaw was used to make the straight cuts. I placed four guidelines equally spaced on the tube, dividing it into quarters lengthwise with a top and bottom line, and a left and right line. On the paper, lay out and make marks as needed for the location of where you will want guidelines on the tube, re-wrap the paper onto the tube, and transfer the marks onto the tube. Measure from the overlapped edge to the mark you made. Guidelines were laid out on the PVC tube for where I was going to cut the access holes in the top, and where I was going to attach the handles and other components to create the bazooka.īegin by getting the circumference of the tube by wrapping a sheet of paper around it and marking where the paper overlaps. You can get this out outdoor stores, craft stores, and most hardware stores. Smaller pool noodles would work great, as would foam insulation for pipes.
