4x16ft DWC Raft
First Raft We've built without any plans. One IBC tote with about 225 gallons of water, a 55 gallon barrel made into a swirl filter and then the 4x16ft Raft.

What is the update on this system? Any lessons learnt?

Thanks for the link, Maybe I'll try that style of filter on the next build. I was working with what I had at the time but its been working great thus far!

That's a very sensible way to build your raft. I'd suggest placing a media bed between the filter and the raft. It will help keep the raft water clean.
I like radial filters better than swirl filters. Check it out. http://www.earthangroup.com.au/diy-blue-drum-radial-flow-filter/
