[pct-l] Bear canisters (homemade)

[Montedodge@aol.com]

You can make your own bear, critter, or bigfoot proof canisters out of PVC
white sewer pipe. Just get big 6 or 8 inch pieces of pipe and some glue for it
at home depot or homebase ( or whereever ) plus some caps. glue one end solid
and the other with a threaded cap so you can screw in on or off. Cost less
than 3 dollars for 6 inch by 1 foot canister. Also good for canoeing,
kayaking. No mice or raccoon can compete and so far, no bears either. Any
hareware person will help you.
