Secure Long Flexible Pipes Solo

What happens here

When installing a long, flexible material like a 12-foot PVC pipe by yourself, it tends to bend and fall. The trick is to use an 8-penny sinker nail. Drive the nail partway into the supporting structure (e.g., a header) where the pipe will be installed. Then, use the head of the nail as a temporary support point to hold the pipe in place while you position and secure it properly with your final fasteners.

Goal: Learn a simple trick to temporarily hold a long, flexible PVC pipe in place for nailing when working alone, preventing it from bending or falling.
