I haven't seen or read that book, but you will also find some great
plans for a PVC seedling light rack in the Premier Issue of Garden
Gate magazine.  This magazine premiered over a year ago, so you'll
probably want to see if your local public library can get it.  It's
really just a half-page of information, but the picture and the
"shopping list" included are helpful.  Since building that first one,
I've built two others with minor modifications for my own situation.
They work great!

Since my husband and I are new homeowners, it was our very first PVC
project, and since then we've designed several structures that work
well in my garden, mostly A-frame shapes that serve as supports for
netting that hold peas, etc.  They're wonderfully lightweight so I
can easily maneuver them around when needed.

PVC is a great material for building garden structures!  Have fun,
Joan
