We will now finish building the base.

Before we can assemble it, we must cut the appropriate lengths of 3/4 inch PVC pipe.

You will need:

  • One section 10 inches long
  • One section 4 inches long
  • One section 6 inches long
  • Three 8 inch pieces.

To make a leg, take one of the 8 in pieces and stick it into an elbow junction. On the other end of the elbow, stick in one of the other length sections and put on a cap to close it.

Repeat this process three times until you have made all three legs.

Now, take the legs and attach them into the stem, with the 8 inch pipe at the top.

A couple of notes:
  • Do not use glue in this project. You may have to adjust the C-stand a few times or swap parts if something ever brakes
  • Also, you might have to trim some of the pipes used above to make them fit perfectly.
