Well well well...

!bumpkins woke up yesterd no fricking water pressure

well tank had another blowout

decided I might as well fix the old one while I was at it, a screw jammed in there with putty had held for years

but the new one was a 1/2 inch monster, putty wasn gonna work anymore

so I brought out the harbor freight welder and a portable battery

turns out its really hard to weld a pressure vessel when there's nowhere for the steam ur boiling to vent but the tiny hole ur trying to close.

and the fricking electrod keps shocking me standing in the mud

so it kept turning out like this. after 3 tries I said frick it it was leaking before

so I boogered them up and they turned out like this @ 50psi

no worse than they've been leakign for a decade
