[QUOTE="Bass n flats, post: 309409, member: 10187"] Thank you and yes here is what you will need to create your very own PVC tiller extension. 1. PVC pipe the diameter that I needed was 1 1/2" that's what fit over my current tiller handle. 2. PVC end cap of same diameter 3. 1 1/2x 1 1/2 rubber coupling. Sold in the plumbing dept and comes with two stainless clamps To determine the length of extension you need measure frome the current tiller handle to your back pocket of where you are going to be standing If you look in the first picture I made two cuts going down the pipe about 3 inches. This is to allow the PVC to expand around the tiller handle. Then just slide the PVC over the handle this would be pretty snug.

This is not necessary but gives it a clean look. I have also seen people just use the s/s clamps.
