It's all done except the splice in the center...which will be some light steel angle screwed on either side of the tubing, at the joint with self drilling sheet metal screws.

This is the Unofficial Larry Henson/Randy Wilson Memorial FIRST Overdrive Practice Overpass.

(Larry and Randy were friends of mine who passed away recently....they gave me the conduit)

PVC alone we think would be to weak to hold two of the TRACKBALLS.

We are making ours with steel pipe insterts in the PVC for stability.

Not quite completly PVC and plywood. The uprights had steel inside the pvc, or on the sides, just steel uprights. The monkey bars also had steel inside in the center.

Also included were a TON of zipties. This field is going to use more zipties than any field I can remember.
