Thanks for posting the finished pictures, it looks pretty good.

Did you put a valve stem on it so that you can fill it with air? I know of some people that has done it and you can't sink it, and if it ever gets a leak in the pipe, you can get the water out of it.

Good luck on your hunt.

Didn't install a valve stem. Should be air tight anyway. Calculating the displacement, it would take 70+lbs to completely submerge it. All-up it probably weighs about 20 lbs. If it gets water in, I'll just drill a hole on the top side to drain it out. Not too worried about it. I'm trying to keep things simple....I have a reputation for over-thinking my designs....LOL... trying to get over that...Ha!
