    Has anyone Attached a PVC pipe to their Molle panel? If so could you post a picture or if anyone has some ideas?

    How crazy do you want to get? It's a PVC pipe. A couple U bolts you could match up in the hardware store to the PVC pipe and panel openings would work....but if you really want a cleaner look. Drill two holes on each end of the pipe that match up to a smaller U bolt and panel openings. Put the smaller U bolt inside the pipe (depending on the size of the pipe) and attach to your panel....though wait if you really want to get crazy grab some spray paint and paint that SOB...of course you could just zip tie it if you want to go for that I don't give a shit look.

    He could also be rolling up his David Hasselhoff posters and storing them for safe keeping...that's what I do.

    Hah oops sorry for the late response.. but unfortunately no pipe bomb storage instruments needed.. however I carry this thing called a ‘Chuck It’ in the cargo area bc my dog and I drive to the dog park everyday, and it’s this little tennis ball launcher thing.. and every single time I open my hatch for anything, it falls out and it pops the tennis ball out which flys off through the parking lot or wherever I am. So after this happening 1000 times I’m just really tired of it haha.. so instead of just keeping it in the backseat or something, since I do have the Molle panel, I figured I could just make something that I could slide it into to store it and it would be easily accessible from the bank when I open the hatch to let my dog out...... sorry it’s not as exciting

    Our GSD loves the "chuck it" & his "Kick Fetchs". Pretty much anything of that brand of toys are his favorite & they last.
    We love our dog divider but it eliminates the ability for a side panel.
    I need to start hanging things from the divider... :frustrated:

    No worries, all in good fun. I would find a strap to use. One thing I have found is double sided Velcro, basically you can just make it whatever size you want

    Can you just use a pvc pipe with zip ties attaching it to the molle. Seems like the chunk it would be light enough to be held up

    Woah it’s been awhile, update I found a solution before I read some of these! Oops, but what I’m using has been working awesome! I used two small pieces of PVC and attached it with 2 duct clamps. The dogs chuck-it slides in and out perfectly!

    Well wish I would’ve read this before I went to Lowe’s and decided to go with metal. Somehow I didn’t even think about this simple solution ha ha but thank you!
