<p>I use stainless steel screws to attach the barrels to the frame. My media is very light and there isn't too much water that fills the voids in the media which keeps the overall weight low when flooded. The barrels are made of extremely durable plastic and I have never had any tearing issues.</p>

<p>I really like how you have simplified the double barrel system and make it look some what attractive.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I was wondering how you fastened the half barrels to the framing and if you ever had any issues with weight and the barrel tearing out.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I'm planning on building my first outdoor system for the growing season up here in Canada. I only learned of the existence of AP two weeks ago and I am extremely hooked. keep up the amazing work</p>

<p>The box houses my 15 minute timer and air pump. We get regular rain and sometimes it is sideways so I like to keep the electrical stuff protected. I use the same timer box for all the systems.</p>

<p>These are some nice simple designs. I'm in the process of building a hybrid flood and drain/nft system but I want to build one of these as well. I was wondering what is the purpose of the small box on the single barrel system? Thanks for the inspiration!</p>

I've heard of putting on a 'thinking cap'....but Chris, if you came up with these great ideas by wearing a 'hat of plants', I'm going outside to put some on my head too !<a rel="nofollow" style="cursor: pointer;"><img src="http://www.bkserv.net/images/Grin.gif"/></a>
