I was wondering how the pvc held up when you drop hot lead into the ballast hole drilled into the bottom. Does it melt or will it stay solid till the lead cools? That would be my only issue in giving pvc a try. I've never tried it, so I can't say. I use lead wire, glued into drilled holes, for ballast.
