super easy rail to make. 4 small pvc pipes on a 2x4. you take a drill bit and drill 4 holes along each pvc pipe then drill the screw through the hole, down through the pvc into the wood. its easy, doesnt break, and only about 20 bucks. you need 4 2x4s, screws, and pvc. make sure to build hte frame first before you screw the pvc on

well i went all out on my 20 footer. i called up some pro plumbing place and got 2 20 foot pvc pipes to make it. intotal i used probably 2 16' 2x4 2 10' 2x4 1 8' 2x4 1 10 foot 4x4 and the pvc. plus like 100 2.5" screws. i screwed on the 4x4 as the vertical supportsevery 4 feet to 1 of the 16' 2x4s plus another 4' that i added on cause i couldnt find any 20' 2x4s. then put the pvc on by screwing up from the bottom. then put 20' of 2x4 on the bottom of the supports and added 3 foot horizontal supports every 4 feet. its identical to the one above only it has 4x4s as the vertical supports and is 20' long. in the end i only made it about 1 and a half feet high cause my back yard is flat. the rail was easy but building a drop in if you have a flat back yard is torture. u need a lot more wood for a drop in then you do for a rail.

in a lil bit Ill know which features ill be using in my park then I could sell you the ones I dont have room for. Im prolly not gonna be able to finish my newest box cause i cant get a topsheet. the frame is all done though just needs a top sheet its 16 ft long and fairly wide. I also have 2 sweet 10 ft pvc rails which are realllly sturdy and identical so you can connect them to create a flat down flat up down flat or just 20 ft flat really fun. those are prolly forsale too if my friend doesnt buy em.
