Anyone know of a major store (Menards, Home Depot, etc) were I can buy 2.5 in barrels or just any place in Wisconsin that sells them. I know that some of you have them, but the shipping is outrageous (I know it’s not your fault) but if you could help a fellow spudder out that would be great. Thanks

you need to find a specialty sprinkler/irrigation supply store. IF YOUR LUCKY lowes or home depot will carry 2.5 inch pvc electrical conduit in the electrical department.

I know that shipping is a pain, but if you can't find a local supplier,

I bought some off McMaster for 30 bucks including shipping. I don't know about you, but I don't see why that's too expensive.

You CAN make a tennis ball barrel by sleeving 3" in 3" with a slot cut out of the inner pipe. Don't know the dimensions, though. DR does.
