I built one like the one on the right. I used my Hustler 5BTV manual, and
it
said to use a 10 turn 6 inch form. That was a bitch to find a 6 in form.
SO I
found the website above, and used the left as a model. The 4" PVC does not
quite
give you 6 inches in form. But as the website states, if you butt to
couplers
together, that will give you a 6 inch form. The couplers are 5 inches at
the
outside edges. By the time the cable is wrapped around it, it's about 6
inches.
I figured that was as close as I could get. As the website mentioned, I
used the
4" PVC pipe as a joint to butt the couplers together, to make them hold
better.
So, I don't know if I used 18-21 feet, but I think I am pretty damn close.

I can get 6" pvc. Start with 21 and work my way down till we get the desired
effect.



I have seen 6 inch PVC. It might be too big.
