Well that didn't work, but the link does. How do I get pictures to appear in my posts?

Figured it out - Sorry I'm so obnoxious in this post.

Most excellent.

How did you hold up the watermelons?

The horizontal supports are 2 1" sections of PVC, so you can scoot the fruits around so that they are resting between the 2 pipes. The big melons were heavy enough that the pipes bent slightly, so the next time I build one I might use metal pipes for the horizontal supports. We'll see.... The nice thing is that you can put the horizontal pipes at whatever level you need, and you can expand the whole thing with more vertical supports to do just about anything. I am thinking of building another one to put over a path or to shade a small seating area.

Well, that's really cool. Did you design it yourself?

I found it online a few years ago - someone was selling an e-book with instructions on how to make it. I found a person on one of the gardening boards who had figured it out or bought the e-book or something who gave me enough info to build this one. So no, not my original idea, although I'm always looking for interesting and attractive ways to grow food vertically, and I love building stuff with sewer pipe.

And here's a neat site with lots of sewer pipe projects:
