I'll try to keep this short and put in as much information as I can for you folks to give me some advice.

I have an area I'd like to experiment in, with 5/16 tubing. It is 200' X 240', or 1-1/4 acres. There are 30 trees I want to tap, mostly reds, and they are at all four corners, with scattered trees in the middle. My collection tank will be at one corner, the lowest point. The land is relatively flat, so I will be using an AC vacuum pump. The plan in my head is to split it in half and have two lateral lines with 15 taps on each line, no main line, with both lines running to the pump and collection tank. I have laid out a course, crisscrossing from tree to tree with a measuring wheel. The length of each line would be approximately 425'.
I have always been on buckets. This will be my first experiment with tubing, so excuse my ignorance if my plan is off to a bad start.
Any advice is appreciated.
