Don't listen to him, it will sharp turn shitty and will do them more harm than good. Water systems sharp add up in price. I use 3x45 gallon frond, alkathine pipe then a line of bell drinkers.

5 gal plastic drum (with twist on cap type) cut in half long ways then another one with a 1/2 inch hole drilled into the side about two inches from the bottom fill this up and then put the cap on and stand it in the halfed drum the water will leak out untill it finds its level in the halfed drum it works and is cheap.atb.

cut the bottom and top off some old plastic drums but leave a lip of about 6 inches, fix it up with a ball cock ( stops it over flowing) and collect it up to some alkathene, pretty much the same idea as bell drinkers just cheaper
