Andrea,
I'm not sure if I understand what you are saying. Let me clarify the water
thing as far as pounds, gallons, cubic feet etc. A gallon is not the same as
a cubic foot. If you had a container that was one foot high, one foot wide
and one foot long....you would have a one cubic foot container. If you poured
water in it, you would find that it would hold 7.5 gallons. A gallon of water
weighs 8.33 pounds. 7.5 X 8.33 = 62.4 pounds. A cubic foot container doesn't
seem that large, but it is. I hope this is of some help.
