or better yet, use recycled construction waste and blow everyone's mind with how ridiculously environmentally conscious and brilliant you are.
The 140 gallon Rain Bench DIY Kit includes:
- 1) Illustrated instructions to build your Rain Bench
- 1) Custom fitted 2-ply waterproof liner, 32″x32″x32″
- 2) Mosquito resistant PVC fittings welded to liner
- 2) 18" UV-resistant BPA free, food grade 1" I.D. black tubing

- 1) 1″ barb to 3/4″ hose adapter
- 1) Garden Hose shut-off valve
- 1) Roll Teflon thread tape, 260″
you could throw a flat 4'x 4' piece on top and make it into a rain dining patio table - See? I told you their minds will be blown.
Materials purchased separately:
- 2) 4’x8′ – 1/2″ exterior grade plywood (treated is best) Many suppliers will make the cuts according to the instructions diagram for a small fee!!
- 4) 2×4 x10′ lumber
- 2) 1x4 x10' lumber (optional for trim)
- Large flat slab for table top (optional)
- Fasteners: 1 lb. of 1 5/8″ deck screws
- Small can of sealer/ paint
- A saw, a drill and a pencil
You could fill it up and jump on it, but we recommend using it inside a bench like this (plans available in the 140gal DIY kit).
btw Scott is 190 lbs (ok 200+ after Thanksgiving). Really, please don't jump on the liners. This was just for testing purposes...
(but it was pretty fun)
