			=Water Filtration=

			Using a clay pot can be an effective measure to filter out water, by mounting an un-glazed clay pot over a bucket the water will seep through the clay and drip into the bucket. It is vital the clay pot is free of cracks and defects and has been pre-soaked for up to 3 days.

			Making clay pottery is very easy and methods have been around for thousands of years, the pot can be rendered bacterial resistant by painting the outside of the bucket with silver paint.

			Silver paint can be made by hydrolysis using some high purity silver, a car battery and a pail of water, by shorting the car battery from the silver to the water, the silver will break down and murky the water, you then evaporate some of the excess water in order to thicken the concentration and paint the silver water to the clay pot surface.

			If the water seeps through the clay pot in less then three hours then it is recommended to replace the clay pot as proper filtration is not occurring.

			This process has been performed around the world with its recorded origin in china, there is no greater water filtration that requires no energy then gravity itself and results in the same level of filtration.

			*'''Our current storage of sixteen 55 gallon barrels amounts to 880 gallons, so 2400 should be more than enough considering we will be using a float switch to control a well pump whenever the rainwater level is below sufficient volume.'''
