tap problem
(OP)
I have a large galvanized steel bucket and I want to tap the bottom side so the fluid in the bucket can be poured out via 1/2 inch pvc pipe.
I was hoping to get some advice on what would be the best/easiest way of doing this with standard parts?

Cut a hole in the bucket. Use a bulkhead fitting such as one of these: http://

I hear you, BigInch... But methinks I would get the water in the bucket a bit salty as I swam with it across the Strait to the Sahara, thus reducing its life saving potential!
