The one advantage of using poly tanks (not taking into consideration getting the tank in there) is that you could just buy one for now and then add more later as the funds allow.

I just see it as a total waste of space.
The boss wants to put a coupla chooks in the space. :doh:
Al :U
Same, I could build the tank in sections and just bash a hole from one to the next as the work progressed (With the Ozito, Im sure its water proof too :p).Quote:

It's 900 here, and increases to 1500 if you're going three stories.
If its a water tank go right to the boundary.
But if ya gunna make beer in the tank keep it well away
3000 litre beer vat, carbonated by flatulent goats, MMMMMMMM Beer
Ok Ive just done a recalculation as I was thinking about it all of today and it was bugging me.
For some reason I calculated 1440 blocks :o:o:o:o:o:o:o
The real count is 250 blocks. :doh:
So that puts the total cost at a reasonable $1300. :B:B
Al :B
I just thought I’d double check you this time since you’re a brickie.Quote:
