It has the wings on the sides to help keep it in. Also taking earth anchors on all 4 corners with cables from one side to the other going over top of the pit. Then cover with dirt.
Went out and got it in the ground today. It didn't however go smoothly, or as planned whatsoever but nonetheless it got done. The bedrock at 4' didn't allow us to go an deeper so the height is something we're just going to have to make the best of. Still have lots more work to do to hide it, but I'm one step closer to finishing it up. Pics.
We rented a bobcat to finish up covering it and finish grade work. Then sewed everything in wheat. Supposed to stay relatively warm the next couple weeks so hopefully well get a little growth before season.
Also put up a solar powered electric fence around it to keep the cattle out.
Well, Dep...... That cooler was pretty dang full. My buddy just got married 3 weeks ago and he had 11 cases of brew left over. So we've been taking advantage of that opportunity .
Oh. We also had 25 hours of labor in it. That tank easily went 3-4,000lbs. Moved it twice due to hitting springs at the bed rock. Second time we moved it we used a John Deere with a hay spike to lift one end while we backed the trailer under it. I'm glad it's over, but it was worth it.
