Hello all, I found this ad on an old tractor/farm classified ad section.
Size of pipe is not mentioned, but I think this stuff is normally 3" or

so.
Could be a great (cheap) deal for a boom for your next HF beam.

Ad: "Sprinkler pipe: mostly 30 foot lengths, with Goodfarmer

connections,
risers & heads, was used in '02, good condition, 100+ lengths, $10 each,
need to move it; Tom Barrett 760-378-2295 (Weldon CA)"

I made a free standing 40 meter vertical out of two pieces of that pipe in
1960. The stuff I used was only 20 ft long, but it was 4 inches diameter as
I remember.

You could fabricate a nice boom with a few 20 foot lengths of that pipe.
