PVC end cap dividing.

[Mr.Russ]

Well i have a PVC end cap (2") and i need a 2" coupling and a 2" piece of flat pvc.

I was thinking of cutting the end from an end cap, so im left with a piece of PVC that will fit tightly onto 2" pipe(using as a coupler) and then gluing the sheet of pvc from the end(fit nicely over it) and cap it off. I will draw a diagram if no-one understands.

Just wondering if this is a good idea. I will not be using the pretend coupling to hold pressure so it should be okay i think.

Thanks

Are you really that cheap where you can't spend the whole 60 cents on a new coupler?

"*GASP* 60 cents?! hmmm... i dunno if i would be willng to pay that."
if this was Rambo, i would expect something like that.

personally, i would just buy the coupler, cause even if its not going to hole pressure, there's still the possibility of it snapping off or sagging at that point.

ok, if i can put $100 into ABS pipe, you can buy a $1 coupler

they cost $3.15 here.

And I just want to improvise because its a fairly long drive to bunnings, i get told that my parents cant make a 'special' trip just to get one thing.
