How to Make a Custom Umbrella Holder for Your Disc Golf Zuca
Summary:
If you enjoy playing disc golf in all types of weather, then you know how important it is to have an umbrella holder for your Zuca cart. While Zuca offers a standard accessory umbrella holder, you can also make a custom one that fits your needs and style.
1. Gather Materials
To make a custom umbrella holder, you will need a few materials: a PVC pipe (1 inch in diameter), two PVC caps, a PVC elbow joint, a PVC T-joint, a drill, a saw, and a measuring tape.
2. Measure and Cut PVC Pipe
Measure the length of your umbrella handle and add two inches to that measurement. This will be the length of your PVC pipe. Use the saw to cut the pipe to the appropriate length.
3. Drill Holes
Using the drill, make two holes on the top of the PVC pipe. The holes should be the same distance apart as the umbrella holder on your Zuca cart.
4. Attach PVC Caps and Joints
Attach a PVC cap to one end of the PVC pipe. Attach the PVC elbow joint to the other end of the pipe. Then, attach the PVC T-joint to the elbow joint.
5. Test Fit
Place your umbrella in the new holder to test the fit. Adjust the length of the PVC pipe if necessary.
6. Attach to Zuca Cart
Using the drill, attach the new umbrella holder to the Zuca cart. Use the same screws that were used for the standard accessory umbrella holder.
7. Enjoy!
You now have a custom umbrella holder for your disc golf Zuca cart that fits your needs and style.
In conclusion, making a custom umbrella holder for your disc golf Zuca cart is a simple and easy project that can be completed in under an hour. With this new accessory, you can enjoy playing disc golf in any weather condition.
