There are 9 steps to completing this project:
Gather your materials.
Measure and mark your PVC pipes using the following measurements:
Wearing safety googles cut your PVC pipes using a hand or mitre saw. Use extra caution when cutting 2” pieces.
Dry-fit vertical bike rack pieces by connecting one 10” and 12” PVC pipe using a tee joint,
repeating until you have 6.
To create the horizontal portion of the rack, connect two tee joints with a 10” pipe, then add a 2” pipe and elbow joint to one end. Repeat this step and then connect the end tee joints with a 2” pipe to create one long section. Repeat the above step 3 times to create three long sections.
Assemble rack feet by inserting 10” pieces into tees and connecting the remaining horizontal piece.
Flip over the assembled rack and ensure all pieces fit together properly.
Glue joints together using PVC cement. Be sure to wear a mask and gloves when following this step.
Park your bikes and enjoy!
