Step 9Make an Overflow Pipe
It is necessary to have a good overflow for your rain barrel. I use a 2" PVC pipe.
Mark and cut the 2" pipe into 3 pieces:
2 ", 18" & 26" .
Using PVC cement (or similar), glue the 18" and 2" sections to a 90 degree elbow as shown.
Next, cement the 26" section of pipe to a 45 degree elbow.
The 2 sections of pipe do not need to be glued together. They will stay together using friction.
