It took a trip to Home Depot, no skills, and cost less than $100 to build the cockpit of my dreams:

Hi Johnathon.

 

Are the pair of pvc plugs identical to each other?

One seems to slide over the other when fitting them together.

I haven't come across these fittings before and I'm trying to find out what to buy.

Hi Milli

Find male and female PVC adapters. Both accept PVC plugs via the threading you can see in the images below. Because of a slight size difference in their cylinders, the male and female adapters slide together perfectly!

Thanks. Makes sense now. Looks a good idea you have there. I'll try it out.

Nice and simple but those bricks are going to throw off the aircraft trim.

 

 

The bricks are very unpopular with the wife.

Divorce her, if a woman doesnt like a mans bricks, she aint for keeping. Would she prefer ornamental stones cos that wouldnt work for you.

 

I like your man cave by the way, im thinking of ways to 'off ' the dog because its garden is prime space for a new shed...
