nate1097sick edit, where did you get all the big green tubes?
I second that. everyone I've asked just says to ask local excavating companies or something but I can not see that working out as most of them don't speak English
made with just pallets that I found around town, a wood ladder from an old bunk bed, and also found the pipes. The turf costed 35 bucks and it works pretty nice with soap and water

if you ask for the tubes they will not give them to you, ive tried at alot of different ones and they even keep the broken ones as they can use them to get new ones. i took one from a construction site during the day, just walked in and took one, no one really cared and i also found one in the woods behind a school which i took.

Really? I've had lots of luck asking. Try asking around at transfer stations, and DOTs. You also can't just ask straight up "can we have one of the big pvc tubes laying there?". Make it sound a little better by saying that your trying to get a local rail jam going on or a local terrain park and having a few of the wider pvc pipes would be very helpful.

yeah ive tried both of those approaches already haha, no luck there. never tried transfer stations and DOTS though. we just walked into a busy construction site in the middle of the day and picked up a pipe with like a 12" diameter and no one batted an eye.

There was one on the side of the road like a 2 minute car ride from my house and I was so close to taking it but I wanted to make sure that nobody still needed it. It sat there for 4 weeks and just when we were about to get it, it wasn't there anymore.
