Re: Building a PVC pit frame and looking for suggestions
I would make sure whether you buy a frame or make one: make sure your ground level is supported.

I've seen several flimsy and tipping PVC frames, and there's nothing as sad as a semicollapsed cube, it's really embarassing. Also be advised in the flexibility of the pieces, as well as their tendancies to curve over time if something is hanging from them.
