  Just became the owner of several meters of blue pipe dug up from the rd next to my house. My question is what can i do with it I thought it might come in handy when i asked for it but not sure how to use it on the Lottie? thanks

When you say mains pipe - what diameter is it?

If it's like this, you can use it errrrrrr like this:

I am not sure I'll have to measure it tomorrow as I have already taken it to the lottie!!

Thanks for the pic and the link I like both ideas........ I have very limited diy skills so will have to keep it very beginner !!!

Assuming the diameter of the pipe is sufficient, the DIY skills won't be much:

1. cut pipe to desired length
2. stick short length of cane in ground where you want the pipe to go
3. put end of pipe over end of cane
4. put mesh etc cover over pipe.

You don't need a lot of skill.

Chop it to the desired length & pop it over a cane pushed well into the ground.

Simples!

(That's not to say that Ice hasn't a lot of skill - just that it wasn't needed here).

Phew.

Glad I agreed.

Thanks, I think.

Is they a minimum diameter that can be used? Or for the matter a maximum???

Size is not an issue.

Bendability is.

Did I say that?
