@@CampBrood sch 40 is probably your best bet. The cel core will crack in cold weather. We have to watch for that when we’re roughing house in the winter here in chicago. If you need something stronger, the next step is sch 80. That’s a dark gray. I’ve used it on higher pressure systems such as commercial pools and food processing plants.

I see you're still responding to comments from not tok ling ago thats good. What do you mean by dry fitting the pieces together? And is glue absolutely needed or would I be able to just screw eveyrtbing together
Good question. Dry fit means no glue and no screws to make sure it all fits together. Without glue it collapses when hit. You must pvc glue and screw all fittings.
No, in order for the goal to stay together during use the fittings need to be glued and screwed. When I "dry fitted" the goal together it took about 5 minutes of play for a ball to hit the cross bar and collapse the goal. With the goal glued and screwed we actually were able to swing a tire on the goal. Check out this th-cam.com/video/9kF5LDCOeSM/w-d-xo.html

@@CampBrood there is no commenting on that video, tell your son that was epic! I can tell he's a dude perfect fan. We are going to build this this summer and the kids will probably do the same kind of vid
@@wncwaterfalls thanks 🙏 for letting us know. I just told him and he was blown away by your nice comments and opened up comments on the video. 🤩 he didn’t know the comments were turned off.
About $130. we did it more for a fun project than cost savings. Since we had the net it paid off as other goals with nets were way more expensive and I couldn’t find the frames for sale without a net. Thanks for watching.
When I built the goal it was about $130 for the goal frame materials plus the cost of the net. I put an amazon link to the net in the video description. Hope that helps.
Side posts cut to 76.5”. Back side posts 34” and 43.25”. Top bar going back 16”. Bottom bar going back 37.5”. Back bottom post 69.25” plus a full 10’ top crossbar 68” plus 10’ You’ll also need 4 little pieces to connect the wyes up top and the 90s on the bottom in the back of the frame.

I’m considering trying to make a 24’x8’ goal for my daughter, my fear is sagging in the top crossbar. She’s got a powerful kick, so I want to make it sturdy, but worried that added weight would only cause the center of the top crossbar to sag. Have you noticed any sagging with your 16’ goal?
Valid concern. I think pvc would sag with a 24’ span. We have a little sag but it’s generally corrected when we move the side posts square. When the side posts bow out at the front/bottom the crossbar sags. You can see a little sag it in the video. After 10 months it hasn’t gotten worse.
Yeah, I’m thinking I’d probably need to add a 3rd vertical bar in the rear up the back in order to properly support the crossbar halfway across, essentially splitting it into two 12 foot lengths, which would hopefully be more stable.
@@brettn you may also want to beef up the back with 3" pvc all around. It will provide more surface area for glue and screws and also more structure. I don't think I would do the 16x7 any different but 3" all the way around would make it a little stronger, I think and also heavier which has pros and cons.

@@Cnucnin a couple hours to go to store and probably anywhere from 2-4 hours at home. I dry fit everything first then glued and screwed all fittings.

@@Cnucnin Self tapping Sheet metal screws. something that goes through the coupler or elbow and the length of pipe. Choose a smaller diameter screw and put 3-4 screws per joint.
As a plumber I’d suggest use sch40 solid core pvc. It’s rated for pressure and more ridged
Thanks for the comment. is there a pvc good for the UV, heat, cold, ice and snow?

You should add a center support
This is super cool! I was just wondering how heavy it is so I can know if it’s easily movable. Also what do you mean by gluing the goal?

is the material list for two goal or one
The materials list is for one 16x7 goal
What items would you think I need that isn’t listed here for a Box Goal.
Hi, I just looked through the video description again and it looks complete. The only thing missing are tools and your assembly time.
Is the any way you can send me list of everything needed to make this goal as what was the end price once fully built
Sure! The material list is in the video description. $130 when i built it.
Where did you get the net?
Hi Thanks, for asking... in the video description are Amazon links to the net that fits this goal frame.
Can we get a video of kids playing penalty kicks on it

@@CampBrood yeah no worries great job by the way just trying to get a idea on what size I want it to be within a budget
@@ebenmoreau2637 understand totally. those prices are from a few years ago, too. Not sure how much PVC has increased in price.
How much for the whole thing?
When I built the goal it was about $130 for the goal frame materials plus the cost of the net. I put an amazon link to the net in the video description. Hope that helps.
@@CampBrood alright, thank you.
I just spent about $300 at Lowes for all the materials today. Not counting the net. I live in VA
