DIY Dry rack from PVC piping

Here is another variation you might get some ideas from: Drying Trees

I was hoping for sizes and lengths.
I don’t have cutting tools so my plan is to ask my friendly Home Depot guys to cut the pipe to correct lengths. When the stay at home order lifts of course.

They seem a scissor style cutter for about$10, quicker and easier than having them do it.

Another thought. I did this for my hockey gear. Get a smallish air pump, I use a Coleman for inflating air mattresses, and add a T connector for the air pump. Tap a few holes into the caps that the gloves and boots fit over. Bam! Instance, internal air dryer for the inside of your gloves and boots!

Thought about this for the drysuit

I cobbled some PVC tubing onto my glove/boot hanger, too. I hate trying to slip on wet gloves. Plugged the air pump into a smart plug so I can control it remotely, too, everything is in my garage.

Hi, I stumbled across some pictures online that showed how to make a dry rack out of some pvc pipes and a bed roller. I'm want to make a replica of this, but I'm unable to find a bed roller or container that has the same dimensions as the one on the photo. I'm guessing it's around 120 cm long and 50 cm wide?

I'd love to hear suggestions on how to solve this.
Acquiring pipes are no problem, it's merely figuring out how to collect the dripping water in a practical way. I'm open to suggestions!

I came across this post and went to the store to build this, but the cost for parts shocked me!

Home Depot costs for the PVC pieces are maybe $25 for the connectors/caps and another $25 for the pipe. Plus the Tray at $25 and up, depending on what you get.
