Alternative uses for pole tubes.
« on: February 06, 2015, 12:27:19 PM »
My CT came with 2 x 100mm tubes fitted but these really don't hold the poles supplied very well.  Am looking to be going down the path of canvas pole tube bags and was wondering if anyone has ideas on what they have used obsolete pole tubes for.

What else can you store in them?

If you need to carry more water you can seal them up and put a tap on them.


[edit] lol,  or just do what muckinhell said.

Stookie made a ~40L non-potable water tank out of poly pipe. Has been awesome! It's mounted between the tub and the toolbox on the drawbar. (I can't for the life of me work out how to post a pic to show you :/ ).
