If you're either cheap or broke, making your own out of PVC is not difficult. - 1" inner diameter PVC, at least 4' long - 2 of cam buckles http://www.strapworks.com/Cam_Buckle_p/mcb1.htm - 1" webbing from REI ($0.34 per foot), get two straps of equal length* - Metolius climber's tape from REI - sand, duct tape, oven mits, a saw, aluminum foil, a file, a coffee can, an oven, and a sink
*Note: the max distance you can hang the rings is equal to half the length of the straps.
Measure the diameter of your coffee can (or similar item). You want something about 7" in diameter. Whatevever the diameter is, add one inch to that, multiply by pi (3.14159) and cut two pieces of PVC pipe that long. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Take one piece of PVC pipe, cap it with duct tape, fill it with sand, then cap the other end. This will prevent it from kinking as you curve it. If you have no sand, think of an alternative, but fill it with something that won't melt or boil. Put it in the oven on aluminum foil, for about 8-10 minutes. Make sure it doesn't get too runny. Then ends will get soft quickly, but that's okay. Start the sink running. Take it out, watch out, it's hot, obviously.
