Bill, we've all heard the sayings, How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. And, getting started is half done.

Many can not get things done because they get overwhelmed and can't see how to accomplish something so they never get started.....but they can sure make comments on how YOU should/shouldn't do it.

That's how my setup came about. We had a fire start 7m away. I had a 500 gallon poly tank sitting...we'd used it for temporary water storage when we were living in the RV. I bought the trash pump to dewater trenches. A couple of feet of scrap 2" PVC pipe...bought some fittings...and I bought the nozzle. No point having them sitting there when together it's a fire trailer. Do what you can with what you got.
