Question about connecting PVC at right angles
I've tried to search online but can't seem to find much information. I'm building a large boot dryer for a company I work for. I'd like to have a bunch of short 1" pieces of pvc coming off of a main 1.5" piece at right angles. It would be more space efficient to not have them all come off of tee connections, but to instead drill holes through the 1.5" and just slide the 1" in. I have a drill press and am reasonably confident about setting up a jig to make this an easy cut. What I'm more worried about is getting that connection airtight. Will PVC contact cement be enough? Contact cement and then caulking? Looking for advice if anyone has tried this before submitted by /u/climber226 [link] [comments]
