Does anyone have any ideas for how to build a water tower?

July 7th, 2008
I want to build a model water tower (10 to 14 feet tall) to put in my backyard. I’m planning on using PVC pipe for the legs, with one thick central pipe in the middle and four skinnier pipes on the sides. I’m thinking of using some kind of plastic or wooden barrel for the tank.
There will really be two tanks; an external tank that will make the thing look like a water tower, and an internal tank that will hold about a gallon of water.
Inside the central pipe I want to have two hoses, one to supply the internal tank, and one that will run down the central pipe and through a hole in the pipe.
Does anyone have any ideas on
-what to use for the external tank
-what to use for the internal tank
-how to attach the internal tank to the external tank
-how to improve the overall design?
Using Fluther
