PVC Inner Tube Chair

So my family and I ride bike a ton, and we are constantly having to replace out inner tubes, but for some reason we keep them. I decided to make a chair with the inner tubes, because its different. This project is a little dangerous and it may be alittle difficult, but if your willing to try something new, just follow my instructions.

I will be posting my variations on my ible shortly.

The inspiration for my project is:

If you fill the PVC pipe with expanding spray foam after it's shaped, it will add strength and rigidity without adding much weight.

Really cool instructable. Thanks
