[QUOTE="M-5, post: 1374218, member: 23550"] After reading about Jed's tire waterer I put plans in motion today . there have been 2 skidder tires in the edge of our woods at work for last 15 yrs. I pulled one out today and brought it home. I bet it weighs 900 to 1000# . i plan to make it portable so I will not be using concrete. I will cut a disc out of Marine Plywood or 1/4 alum plate. Wood will be easier to attach and seal. The lip I will be attaching to is 3" thick so wood grip screws will work to attach the 29" disc with buytl caulk sandwiched. Once attached I will pour a thin layer of elastomeric coating and let it dry. Then I will only need a couple gallons of elastomeric (cool seal) to fill the lip area up. The first one I will not plumb thru bottom cause I'm gonna use a Hudson valve on it. With it not having concrete I can move it if I want too. By coating both sides of plywood it will likely last my lifetime. [/QUOTE]
