Well I received my stuff from Screwfix (a lot cheaper than TP I must say and have loads left over to make some more jumps etc) and I sat down and made me a hoop jump and some weave poles.
For the hoop jump you will need
8 x 45 degree bends, 2 x 90 degree bends, 8 x t's plus pipe.
You just need to cut the pipe to make the hoop for your size dog. If you want more info please pm me.

Weave poles were very easy, you can add as many poles as you like, minimum for KC regs was 5 maximum is 12.

Very nice! Great job on them & thanks for sharing them with us! It won't be too much longer before Ozzy & I get started in agility. So, I'll be coming back to check here when the time is right.

Thank you!

That's great. I have made myself jumps, weaves, tunnels, shoots and probably more. With the weather here I don't get a chance to practice with Shadow:( I would love for it to get nicer here. But awesome hoop. Keep up the great job.

What great equipment & light too. I'll have to try it. Years ago I saw a home-made dog bed made out of the same stuff with shade cloth as the bed.
