How to build a “drain barrel” for those of you who may not have gutters on your house. This project is most useful for those of us who have a clearly-defined gouge in our wood chips where the water pours off the roof. This would be also great to remember if you build a more permanent survival shelter…. Or at your bug out location. See how to make one and get a little more info on why you may need one at your property.
