Backyard Skating Rink - Time Lapse

This past winter we set up a 48x80 foot skating rink (as we do every year) so I decided to set up a PlantCam camera to take a shot every few minutes. We had a LOT of snow this year so we spent more time clearing off the ice than using the rink. This video shows less than half of the rink.

What did you use to "clamp the trap to the PVC?

@motorcop18m4 I just cut up some of the extra pipe into clamps

Thank you. I was going to try that too. I thought that if I cut a small piece, and then cut a channel groove lengthwise, it shout snap on and hold. Great video. I will send you some questions about the resurfacing tractor soon. I am thinking of making an ice shaving blade for my mover deck. Hopefully the snow and weather stay a little more consistent in Minnesota.
