    For most of my build, I have been filling the bucket each time it got low with a garden hose pistol nozzle. If I had it to do over again I would rig up a cheep toilet tank valve .

      Here is mine. It is not a HF saw, but if you can afford the 1400 buck outlay, you can probably sell it for almost what you paid for it if you keep it clean (probably $1200, so the net-net is cheaper than an HF saw and it cuts a lot better). In addition to the 5 gallon bucket, take a tupperware container a little bigger than the pump, wrap it all in an old washcloth and ziptie it closed. The pump will last longer and the water will remain cleaner.

        Gulf, I too have been filling and refilling the bucket. I am totally digging your toilet tank valve idea. I have a friend who will be building in the future I may try to see if he would let me do that for him.

          Thanks' David,
          It would be a simple job to drill a hole in the bottom of a 5 gallon bucket and plumb it to a garden hose. It would have saved me a lot of steps, and some aggravating moments when I was ready to cut but, the pump did not have enough head of water over it to pick up . I'm just too lazy and to close to the end to rig one up .

          If you do, please let us know how it works.

            I see potential for an after market product.

              Any one that wants to patent the idea and approach the wet say moguls, go ahead. Just, please, cut me in .
