    Sewer Hose Support

    One of our more frequented RV parks has a number of spaces that result in the sewer connect being slightly upslope from where the sewer hose is if just dropped on the ground. I tired of having to walk the remaining liquid up the hose to get it all to drain (whenever it was time to drain the tanks again). I have been using plastic rain gutter with wood blocks but wanted to reduced weight and save space so I came up with this.

    At the above park, I use 20' to get to the sewer connection. In the below picture, I used all 35' that I carry as an extreme test.

    This is 2 pieces of gutter if need. Each section of gutter is the width of the 337 basement (door-to-door)

    Here are the pieces. The parts joined are glued and the others used as needed without glue. The 90s are to hold the gutter in place and the Ts are for stability if needed. I made a collection of various heights. All 1/2" PVC.

    Here are all the pieces for the stands. lite weight and very little space required to store.

    Thanks for the tip. Very simple, lite and easy to find parts and build. A+ in my book.

    Great forum...

    Thanks everyone. PVC has become the universal goto for building modular lite stuff...

    My motorcycling, jeeping, shooting, and RVing buddy and I use the term "FHFS$" (Friends Helping Friends Spend Money) very often and less often "fhfs$ (friends helping friends save money). This forum does the same. OUTSTANDING!

    This is one great forum for ideas and sharing.
