I have about 40 pieces of 6-8ft plastic pipe (5 inch size) I got from a local crew when they were running underground cable recently but can't figure a way to use this big stuff. Any ideas????????

You might try to buy some 1/2' drip tubing ($10 from Home Depot 100') and cut holes in the 5" pipe like this picture and cement them down. Just an idea.

I usually use the 5" stuff as a trunk and add limbs with the 1 7/8".
Those are GOOD ! 1 "suggestion": run a couple of curved pieces of well secured (zip ties?) PVC tubing across the top of the block to help stabilize it in case it gets snagged; these "out riggers" will help keep it upright...note the orange 1s have this feature `built in`...
thanks guys now I can get to work!!!!!!!
You can also use the 5" as a main pole and place wood, branches, boo, or tree tops around it or in it.
I think 4 ft pieces of the 1/2 inch. You can buy a 100 ft roll of the drip tubing from Lowes for $10.
Think I'm gonna try this
Dropping them into a submerged creek channel or on the deep side of a natural lay down tree might produce "interesting" results...
