We installed all of our new tubing, tying existing lines into the mainline and reconfiguring at the same time. we got our 220 storage tank repaired and in the woods, head tank installed and plumbed into the arch. all buckets and other tanks cleaned and ready to be used!!
right now we have 145 taps on the tubing, and are going to be installing the bucket taps tom. should end up with about 165 taps this year. we were shooting for 200, but ran out of 5/16 before we hit our mark, and i don't think we have 50 buckets to put out. we will see how we do with what we have.
Many thanks to SeanD for stopping by and helping us install the tubing. also many thanks to the other Four of the Five saps for another memorable tapping day.
Hope everyone has a great season with more sap than they can handle!!
