Ha, ha, sure thing Mark, but be advised, nothing happens very fast with me. I have finally gotten around to tearing out a wall separating the laundry room from the workshop in the basement and roughing in the 'sump' room. Painted the walls and floor white, not sure how I want to finish it along the concrete wall, leave open studs or apply some sort of water resistant drywall. The other two walls will of course be covered with something to keep crap from the workshop out. Here are a couple of recent photos. You'll see the water containers you asked about in another thread a while back. Blue one I got at Swan Lake Nursery Land for $25 and the translucent whitish one at Madcappers Brew On Premises for $45.

View into the sump room. The wall on the left which is not really that visible, adds extra support for the tank upstairs since it will be lengthwise over only 2, maybe 3 floor joists;



View in the other direction. Currently using the drums to collect RO/DI waste water which I try to recycle around the house. Think I might use the white one for mixing saltwater in the future;
