I hadn't thought to try something like that (and I've done plenty of projects with PVC).
Gonna have to build me one of those.

That, and your mention of conduit clamps, reminded me of another tool I made for the bikes w/ PVC I thought I'd share.

I took the basic idea from another forum, but they had a single straight bit of PVC w/ the adjusters on each end.
I prefer a slightly different version...







I use the tool to measure the distance between the swingarm pivot bolt and the rear axle, to ensure the axle is straight and the exact same distance on each side of the bike. This version of the tool allows me to use it on both of my bikes, quickly and effectively.

Neat-O-peachy-keen.
The hose clamps are close to what I was talking about. I should have time tomorrow to visit "the Hoe Epo" as my kids used to call it.

If I find the ones I'm thinking about (designed to lie flat against the wall and circle the pipe), I'll post pics.

Great idea for the wheel alignment. I'm still doing the "string thing".
Have to make a mark every time.

I converted my DR's from H2 to H4 using a mount from a Hyundai Elentra headlight casing. Love those Dremels!

Thanks. I am going to be visiting the junkyard again.

Kato, how did the headlight mod go?

[katoranger]

Never did it. I am probably not going to either. Won't need it on the trails.

Has anyone heard from speedsouth?
