No websites that I know of. The ones we are building don't have GPS locations......yet. The Corp is deciding where these will be dropped.
is there a site that gives us GPS locations of brush piles?

Here's a look at all of the concrete sitting in our shop:
Here's a look at the jigs we're building to hold the buckets, while the concrete sets up. We don't want a bucket full of bamboo and concrete falling over! Hopefully the jigs we're building will work. I danced on top of one of them to see if they were sturdy. I'm pretty sure if my 270 pounds didn't mess it up, the bamboo, concrete, and bucket shouldn't be a problem.

You gonna fill those buckets with rocks and top the bucket off with concrete? I first stick the boo in about three inches of dirt. They'll stay in place, for the most part. Then I toss hand-sized rock into the bucket, placing them around the stalks as best I can. Then, I top it off with crete, just enough to lock the rocks in.
This way, I can make two buckets per bag--with a little left over. With what I see in the photo (1) you would have enough to make up about 70-80 buckets.
You guys are gonna have a blast. Please post any pr you guys get on this. Have fun.

AJ, there is 126 bags of quikcrete there. That should be enough for us to make 160 buckets.

Here's a picture of about 12 or so 'boo buckets. We put these together this morning. So far it looks like our changes to the jigs is fixing the wind problem.

That is one beautiful picture. I'm so jealous.
Pick a calm day to put them in and I'm sure the crappie will be thankful.
By the way I sent this link to my cousin who is the FFA teacher in Rolla Missouri so maybe he can get started on a project like this.
Best Wishes
Soak em if you got em

We're going to the Lake Degray this Thursday with 80 'boo buckets! They vary in height from 8' to 15' tall.
