Rain water collection tote after a 3/4 inch rainfall on 10-23 from a roof area of 800 square feet. Note 4x4 base construction to elevate the tote for greater drain pressure. The 2x4 to the left of the tote is supporting the downspout drain from the house gutters.
The board next to the tote provides a handy step for access to clean the prefilter at the downspout end.

WOW look at all that water from one rainfall...I'm impressed. Step? looks like a nice shelf for a long narrow planter full of climbing beans or peas.
