    Nice work Dowtish!

    Is that all cement-lined ductile pipe in there? Looks like a lot of the spool pieces we use for water meter assemblies

    Yes, it is 10 inch ductile iron that I had to paint myself last week, before installation. The tank is 65 feet tall. Which should help in understanding the magnitude of this ridiculous endeavor.
