I wanna do something along the lines of the Nick Taylor flatbar.

but i wanna know if you can substitute the metal pipes with PVC and instead of using screws to connect the pipes to the rail, use plugs attatched to the bottom of the rail that will fit snugly into the PVC. Anyone thought about or tried this? Any input would be appreciated.

Hyperlite_06Byerly, I've done it, Pvc will flex more than you think and crack. Just use sturdy metal pipes.
