Saw this on a website - they were selling for $30 plus shipping. Think I have $20 in it.

1 1/4" PVC 10'
8 - 1 1/4" T's
4 - 1 1/4" elbows

10 - 2" pieces of 1 1/4" PVC
2 - 3" pieces of 1 1/4" PVC
8 - 7" pieces of 1 1/4" PVC

I didn't glue it, might need to expand one day :-D

You can make it wider, the 3" pieces in the middle is about as small as you want it.

Made it to fit in here

I made this one years ago for my truck and I love it.

I did something kinda similar for the rod blanks I'm working with.
Looks good Chalk.

I see it didn't get the purple primer disease. Everything I make out of PVC gets that.

Yeah, I didn't glue it Luke....I can take it apart - thinking of adding four more rod holders to it.
