Haha I would prob be in the garage way too long

Hi! I made my own bought the bucket and gamma lid at Home Depot, the switch and boot at western marine. The pump, mojo timer, fittings, aerator and deck connector at OEX and the inline fuse holder at walmart. The wires I already had. After all that I probably saved $35 it was not worth the time. Buy the bucket one from OEX or better yet their tank that sell for $199 is more compact and comes with 6v battery, Battery case and fishing pole holders. It looks great for only a little more. Either way a live well is awesome.
