Thanks. Luckily I found a 5'x10' end-of-roll piece of Firestone Pondgard at Hawaiian Botanicals so I got 10% off. I think its going to work out well. In order to avoid getting folds in the liner, I've cut a circular piece for the bottom of the barrel and then I've cut out a frustum cone piece to line the sides of the barrel and then I'm sealing the seams with seam tape.

I'll be looking for either a bamboo spout or a barrel pumping fixture to mount on the top barrel. Water from the bottom barrel will be pumped through this fixture and into the top barrel. Then, the water will overflow through a wine barrel tap (connected to an overflow pipe) that I'll attach to the front of the top barrel and the water will flow down into the bottom barrel.
