LR columns

[GreenSpottedPuffer]

What have you guys used as rods to build LR columns? Im looking for something quite thin if possible and easy to find. Someone had recommended fiberglass parking rods but I have not been able to find any. Any other ideas? I do not want to use PVC because I want something thinner if possible.

Thanks!

You can use plexes glass rods 1/2" they work well .

Yeah I keep hearing about plexi rods...Anyone know where I can get them?

I'm swinging by home depot tonight to try and find the same thing. I've seen pictures here of people who have built and H at the bottom and had a 1/2 inch of pvc pipe hooked up to the middle and the rocks with 1/2 inch holes stacked through their holes. Looked pretty damn good IMO.

i used acrylic rods and a masonary bit followed by hyraulic cement for a more natural bond. looks great and solid too.
