    Oil and Gas industry people, what are these pipes used for?

    There was a guy that had a bunch of hunting dogs . He fed them horse . He had a pickup all set up to haul them with a ramp and winch to load them. He lived in the middle of a big Amish settlement so he had a good supply . It sure seems like it would have been a lot of work?
