They’re two “ale pail” buckets that I had because we brew beer—they’re foodsafe plastic buckets with spigots. The top bucket is open, and then has a tube running to a Sawyer water filter (like a Lifestraw) via the spigot. The output on the Sawyer runs to another tube that feeds into the bottom bucket via a hole drilled in the lid. We just dump buckets of water from the creek or from rainwater into the top bucket, and it fills the bottom with fresh clean drinking water.
