Water table arrived today... they didn't break the ends per the drawing but included the end caps I'll have to weld on. Got a start on it.
They knocked $60 off the price. Said they couldn't bend it.
Found some pipe couplers and turned them down on the lathe to fit into holes I've yet to drill. I'm going with two drains at opposite corners.


Capped the lower tube ends with more of a fish plate. A little overkill but better looking than a square. I want to cap the uppers but think I may need access inside the tube???

The gantry should be on its way down the road and I hope to have it Friday.
In other news, the $25 auction score. 🙂

yes it has no jack.
