Me too. If you check youtube there are some on there. I made playstands with trees, but the PVC is lighter and likely more portable.

@BigMacWonder yes I have pics, will post them tomorrow. I did a huge gash to my left thumb this winter making it, eight stitches and lots of pain! The whole thumb from nail to hand along the bone with an exacto knife! then I cut open the top of my right hand with a wire hanger..... Sigh, the things I do for my fids.
I think PVC is fairly easy to work with if you have a right pipe cutting tools. I say that and then think, I would likely hurt myself. LOL

I bought a hand held pipe cutter. Needed a little hand strength but it was easy.
I built a stand much larger than I planned.... But it was easy peasy

I have been wanting to make one for Albert to give him another place to perch and play. Thanks for sharing some of these.
