Tap Stand Build Day - Take 2

After learning from our mistakes last time and building upon the successes as well, we built a whole new tap stand with a better design and more experience. What you'll notice between this one and the last one is it is sturdier, it exposes the water pipe for maintenance if need be, and it is hopefully more aesthetically pleasing as well. Check it out!

Ankit, Josh, Cori, and Lila are working on the form work here. We revised it so that it would be a sturdier structure, especially around playful children.

One of the tricks to making the structure more sound is the proper placement and construction of rebar, which is what Josh, Cori, and Lila are working on above.

The formwork is ready for us to pour concrete!

A much nicer, sturdier, and better final product!

Here you can see the back little spine where the pipe will run up to the tap. Should the pipe break, it will be easily accessed for repair and maintenance.

It was great fun for the whole family!

After pouring the concrete, some of us posed!

With a much better result the second time around, our team is much more confident in our ability to install a great irrigation system in June. Stick around for more updates!
