Working Notes. This is a stub!

Everything below this point is working notes. Here is a basic photo example, which is resized to 400 pixels wide, and on the left hand side of the screen.

This is 400 pixels wide, and on the left.

Here is the Mediawiki code to make that: [[Image:example.jpg|left|400px|This is 400 pixels wide, and on the left.]]

I thought of something that may be civil engineering, emergency housing, and reprap related - or maybe not.

Water valves/manifolds for 55 gallon drum emergency/low tech water supplies. The majority of the 55 gallon type water supplies that I have seen have a metal outdoor faucet welded into the side of them with a hose pipe connected to them for bathing, washing, and I guess drinking water. The $15 (USD) metal faucet could be replaced with a reprap made plastic ball valve, a reprap plastic hole insert, two neoprene washers, a reprapped securing nut, and some waterproof sealant. You would still need to a drill a hole in the side of the barrel, but that's cheaper than welding - and a large punch and sledgehammer would work in a pinch to make the hole.

Another option would be to join multiple barrels together and have a reprapped manifold that fed multiple hoses to multiple places (I'm thinking along the lines of a tent city arrangement). The last manifold I put in was several years ago, it was brass, cost around $150 (USD) and my thought then was "why isn't this thing made out of plastic, it would be cheaper."

Really big example images with lots of descriptive text are a fun part of documentation.
