Water Butts

Busman747 · 21-06-2017, 10:40

I have 2 barrels which would make ideal water butts. Large opening at top which is sealed with a screwed lid, holes are already drilled to fit taps and the taps are supplied - needs someone small to get inside to hold tap when fitting or an ingenious Accywebber to figure out a way of tightening the taps lol

Just a couple of quid each if you want them.

Could you put it on it's side then lie down and reach in with arms above your head?

That was the original idea Neil. I wanted my daughters friend who was around 12 and skinny to do this but time passed and she suddenly put on weight

Just measured the access hole and it is 13" Diameter so if anyone has a son or daughter that can squeeze through it AND hold a spanner (Don't chuck the baby in) it will be a three minute job

And when they have finished holding the taps you could get them to climb up the chimney.
