I can see why the roto molded tanks would be much more reasonable in

I agree...which is why I'd like to know who quoted you that price so I can
be sure NOT to recommend 'em.


I asked my local plastics supplier, Industrial Plastics (Nanaimo) for the
quote but I think they just send it to another company in Victoria, BC.
Don't think you would accidentally recommend them to anyone.
What do you think of the idea of fabricating a holding tank from plywood, FG
cloth and epoxy as suggested by AMPowers? A friend is thinking of doing
this and I might consider it as well.
