Last night as I was packing away the tools I was looking at the paddock and reflecting on the work completed a couple of days ago and start thinking about how can I irrigate it over the dryer months.
So I come up with this ......
My blue 40ltr drum gravity feeding a soaker hose
to attach the hose I have drilled a hole in the bottom and siliconed the connection in the base
the stand I have made with left over material we have stocked piled around the house.
Today I filled the drum about half way to test it out and it has gone without a hitch no leaks and the soaker hose seems to working well also for a cheapie.
So fingers crossed its still all going well in a few days, if so Ive just found some old lawn mower wheels so Ill make it portable as a complete unit around the paddocks.
Happy steeming everyone ......
