PVC Fittings for Hoop House style Greenhouse

thingiverse

I designed these 1/2 inch PVC Fittings to assemble a Hoop House style Greenhouse. You could likely use furniture grade PVC fittings for this project, but I wanted screw holes built into each part. I did not include screw holes in the corner fittings since I didn't attach the three full-length (hoop) pieces together; only all of the cut-to-length pieces were drilled and screwed. The photo featuring plants includes these exact parts being used, but the image with just pipes on a pallet showcases earlier designs. I made some changes for strength reasons, as I broke some smaller/clip-on style fittings. The pallet is one I picked up for free a few years ago. You can build a frame using 2x4s and drill holes for the PVC to fit into. I purchased 4-foot long snap clamps and cut them down to make shorter pieces that clip onto insect netting and plastic.
