I got tired of seeing the splitter, all alone, out in the field under a deteriorating tarp.
So I decided to do something to make it a little more comfortable.
Materials: 3 pieces of 10' 1/2" EMT, 2 PT 10' 4x4, 6 18" pieces of re-bar and a fresh tarp.

Dang ... can't upload photos.

The uploader seems to only work on alternate Tuesdays when pollen count is below 40 :rolleyes:

Maybe we should have a contest to see what others would build with your stated materials - judged on how close you come to using ALL the materials, and how well you "paint a WORD picture" :D ...Steve

... still no pix?
Well, what else can I say?
I did use my HF Tool That Doesn't Suck tube roller and a set of 3/4" dies, that I got for it, from Swag Offroad.
The day started out with The Plant Manager asking if we could make hoops for a "low tunnel" to support row cover fabric over the squash plants, to keep Bambi out. That went very well, at which point, my better half suggested that a few hoops over the splitter might help keep the tarp from getting all gnarly and allow better air flow, reducing ground moisture building up and creating condensation. She's smart, that one.

It's ... alive!
So, as I was saying, we started out making hoops for a low tunnel to cover our squash:

Then moved on to making a more comfortable home for the splitter:
