Wouldn't this be a great way to capture rain water and use it to water our spring vegetable garden. It's simple idea from Africa, three junk yard metal barrels welded together with taps at the bottom. We redirect our downspouts from our roof into the barrels and voila! free water. I'm going to try and build a couple of these here in my garden this spring. Needless to say, painting them brightly and making sure they weren't previously filled with nuclear waste will be the first step before welding, hoisting and securing. And then, pour baby pour!
