A wide range of DIY projects can use IBC tanks and their metal cages, from a hot tub and outdoor shower, to biodigester and firewood storage.
Matthew and Charis Watkinson from Beeview Farm (featured on Channel 5's 'Into the Wild' with Ben Fogle) take us around their One Planet Development plot in West Wales.
Take a look at the multiple uses they've found for IBC tanks. Matthew shows us the reed bed system for cleaning greywater and the log storage unit under the log burner. Charis introduces the 'owl tower' and the storage unit for chicken bedding.
Inspiring ideas for upcycling!

How do you go with the UV from the sun deteriorating the plastic making it brittle

@Sugarsail1 3 года назад

I'm just going to go back to using a steam engine to get around.

Just bought 4 on market place for 25 bucks ^_^ and a bunch of metal and plastic barrels, for other projects.

Fab. Do you show some of work you do in cutting the tanks open? I'm imagining cutting the top off for a plunge pool, but using a hair dryer or other to fold over the sharp edges.

They are brilliant people.

Awesome work! Watched new lives the other day and thought you guys were great! Where is the best place to get IBC tanks? Do you have to buy them?

@PermacultureMagazine 3 года назад

Thank you. Yes they can be bought from a variety of sources. Have a look on Gumtree or your local online marketplace. Just be careful what has been in them if you plan to store water.

This is great. I have come across a number of ways of setting up smallholding. Off grid projects. I grew up on a farm, in the late 1958 to 1972...but keep links with a number of others projects. Take care.

@seancollins3835 Год назад

Washing machine....looks like torture. There must be a way to hook up a stationary old cycle, so as you pedal in a fixed position to rotate the drum in a more effective manner. Needs some designing, but possible.

@susanboyle9446 Год назад

Hello. Fascinating stuff. Can I paint my two halves of an IBC tote. And will they get too hot for growing vegetables? You mentioned something about solar heat and as I’m in South Australia with ( possibly ) hotter summers than you. Thanks. Sue

@lpmoron6258 9 месяцев назад

The rack from the ceiling would be good for hanging pots and pans from. I could see a trellis for cucumbers in the garden.

I would like to convey my appreciation for the stairs demo!

@MissionaryForMexico 2 года назад

Outstanding job, I love your english accent! I am doing similar projects using sun, growing food thru hydroponics using ibc, building septic system using five ibc. The key is to think outside the box, be willing to experiment, and the self satisifaction of making something that is not only cost effective, but usefull, and needed!
