you can build on prettie cheep,, what Iv'e done in the past is buy a 3/8 inch woden dowel about 3$ then a piece of 1X2 cut that to the legnth you want the trap, lay the 1X2 flat then make marks at the 1 1/2 inch mark do this all the way down the legnth of the trap. then take a 3/8 drill bit and drill the holes,, be sure you ar drilling as straight as possible. a drill press works the best.. place the dowels into the holes and cut to the legnth desired... good luck...

A four inch pvc 45 degree elbow works very well as does a slot box opening. The slot box is hard to explain but there is a picture on here somewhere of one.

The PVC pipe I think would be the easiest. The guys on here have posted some pictures and have claimed they work well. ---------- RT Williams

Use wire coat hangers. Cut the sraight part and bend two 90 degree angles. Make several of these and staple them so they swing back & forth. (check also for recent thread on same subject)
