finished the water tank stand!

After three days work, I have finished the water tank stand. Once again, this stand is for holding a 275 gallon (2400 pound,) water tank 6-feet in the air, to gravity feed our garden.  Other than getting Dad to hold the heavy parts when we were putting the thing together, I built the entire thing by myself. The stand itself weighs several hundred pounds.






We filled the tank up with water and it hasn't collapsed......................yet!~

It is a good thing that your Dad helped you build the water tank stand. You can save a lot of effort and energy if you have somebody to help, and it is a good bonding moment for you and your Dad as well. Did the tank in the fifth picture have already water in it? If it had, the stand was really sturdy to carry it even with the added weight of you and your Dad.
