    Thank you for putting these videos out! I built my wife a snowcone stand and the last thing I've got to finish is plumbing. Prior to these videos it seemed daunting and confusing. I've now got a plan of attack and will finish it up this week and get to selling snow cones!

    Great information. So I bought water tanks that are not flat. Can the fresh water tank be stacked on top of the grey water tank or do I need to return these and order ones that will fit side by side?

    • @fbaltierrez
      @fbaltierrez  5 месяцев назад

      @caltrim1 not sure about the answer to that. Water does weigh a lot, I have only used this setup

    Hi Frank, I'm building my own 5x8 food trailer from scratch by following your videos.. I'm curious as to what size tanks I should purchase? My county requires that grey water tank is 15% bigger but that is all. I'll be serving sweet & savory crepes, as well as coffee and tea. What size tanks do you think I should chose? Thanks a bunch!!

    • @fbaltierrez
