racefan Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I was searching craigslist today for food grade plastic barrels & came across this. Kind of spendy but it could be handy to have a faucet to fill water jugs. Come to think of it a 1/4 turn valve would work better. http://portland.craigslist.org/clc/grd/1367762901.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanz Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 The guys that sell those food grade barrels...don't they get them free? I wonder where they get those? I need 1 myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpunk Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 There is also a guy in Hillsboro that sells them for $15 each. I have 2 and am getting a few more also. This is his cell(business) line. 503-640-5954 2790 Minter Bridge Rd Hillsboro, Or He has a couple different types but I wanted white so I could see the water levels. I'll get blue outside so no algae or anything can grow in the water there. I will be using the excess RO water to water all my plants so I can conserve for my second mother(mother Nature)... That last line sounds like I could live in Eugene(laugh)(laugh)(laugh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCR Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 They want 20 for them down here. I might be able to get for 15- the blue ones. They used to be free but the company was laying people off, and any extra revenue they get helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
