This weeks project ! New water tower

[Pltreesurgery]

Replaced an old water tower that was a gravity feed supply for a fishing hut on the Stobhall beat of the river tay in Stanley Perthshire , 4 telegraph poles concreted into the ground with a frame built so a new water tank can sit on top, fair bit of chainsaw joinery involved ! IBC water tank to sit on top then jobs a goodun !

Some neat joints there, How deep did you manage to get the telegraph poles?

[Pltreesurgery]

3 foot into the ground , needed something pretty solid as the tank will be a ton weight once full ! Pretty pleased with how it turned out ! Railway sleepers notched in at the top with 10 inch decking screws holding them on ,

All done with husky 350 ,15" bar

Care taken to get all nails screws etc from telegraph poles prior to cutting ' no chains were harmed during this project !!!!
