My only advice is to seal it up VERY carefully. If it leaks when you turn
it on, you will spend the next couple years tying to plug it.

Had one built for met this summer. Builder used two concrete
preformed stair units. Turned one upside down for the catch basin and
other one right side up for the two tiers. Said he had a few around.
Worked great! Have pics if you need them.

All the best,

One thing I think I learned is do not waste your money on black
urethane foam. Use the regular lower foaming type from Home DeBigBox
and paint it black. The other stuff costs three times as much and
turns green.
