    6 inch ( or is it 7?) sewer pipe, capped at both ends.
    He used a screened fitting at the top to keep debris out, and allow filling/draining (air lock prevent).

    Then standard garden tap at the bottom, with female/female connection for filling. Used stainless bands to secure to headaches rack uprights.

    I'm kinda lazy, and low budget. I bought a much bigger bottle to refill this, and it sits next to my cup holder for ease of access...

    Unrelated to my lazy comment, but I don't really get dirty....lol
    I wasn't saying I never wash my hands, but sanitizer is quick and easy. Plus I kinda like the lavender scent....

    You want warm water use a steel tank and run it next to the muffler.
    I get extra hot water as it heats off the engine water, 200 degree water hurts.
