 Save yourself the trouble... Feb 10, 2005
By DLA2
This may in fact be the worst book I've ever purchased.
Fully 80% of the 'projects' are "cut a piece of pipe, put a cap on it, and place it over something sharp" The other 20% are "cut a piece of pipe, put a cap on it, screw it to the wall and put things in it"
The 'furniture' portion of the book (which is what I was really after) says "pvc furniture is so popular that you should check your local hardware store for specialty joints and designs"
There are /no/ scale drawings/plans, just the occasional drawing of a piece of pipe with a cap on it.
I was unable to find anything in this book that was useful to me, and nothing that was any more complex than 'holder' or 'cover'.

 Disappointed Jul 28, 2005
By Wayne Gossett
"old tinkerer"
There are some good ideas in this book, but many projects were not completed with a few simple sketches or explanations. Also too many of the projects were useless ideas. I also bought one for my daughter and she came to the same conclusion as I did. She said "Dad I think you wasted your money".
I think a thoughtful rewrite of this book would make it a winner as both my daughter and I have seen many other good uses for PVC pipe.

 Ignore DLA2's review! Mar 27, 2005
By tom miller
This is a really good book. I don't know why DLA2 reviewer was so negative. He complains because the book is simple and easy to understand? hey, building with PVC pipe is not rocket science! Sanders includes many useful designs and all info that is needed to build them. While not as good (it IS good, just has a narrower appeal) as his previous book, The Self Reliant Homesteader, PVC Project Book is well worth the purhcase price, and a solid second book for the author.

 Over a hundred projects constructed from PVC piping Apr 10, 2005
By Midwest Book Review
PVC pipe is a cheap, versatile material which is easy to work with and thus lends to home and garden projects, but until now there hasn't been a single source focusing on PVC as a foundation for such projects - enter Charles A. Sanders, who presents over a hundred projects constructed from PVC piping. From gutter cleaners to containers, racks, and holders, The PVC Project Book: 101 Uses for PVC Pipe in the Home, Garden, Farm and Workshop packs in practical project applications.
