teehaha - 2014-01-03 8:54 PM It's been alot of years ago, but Dan (who never throws anything away) rinsed out a couple of lick tubs the cattle had and was going to use them as water tanks for some temporary horse pens.  Sure enough, within a couple of days something leached out of the plastic and formed a sheen on the water.  Just wanted to throw that out there as a lesson learned for someone else.......





 

OH MY! I hadn't thought about this. Thank you for putting this out!!!!
