5th Wheel Pin Cushion (Head Protector)

Hey Everyone,

I was just wondering if any of you have come up with a cheap DIY pin box cushion? I have seen the ones in the web for about $50 and I made my own out of a Tupperware bin, but I'm curious what you guys have come up with out there? I like to keep the pin covered because it's right at kid scalp height!

    As far as around the pin box is concerned we have used foam pipe insulation or swim noodles. As far as the pin itself is concerned a good foam beverage holder works well.


    Pipe insulation or swim noodles around the slide that is right at head height.

    What he said or the pin (beverage holder or make your own) - along with a cone (or?) on the ground.

    Be creative! - Whatever works..:C

    BTW - the "lesson learned" - there have been posters in the past to this same topic who -besides the headache- required stitches..:(
