Nutty idea, how about getting a bunch of 15" spheres made like this then
connecting them into a ring? I don't think a 15" sphere will do as a topload
for this size, but a bunch of them together... maybe? The drain pipe Dr.
Resonance mentioned sounds interesting as well. I'm going to have to check
out some farm supply places around here.

I also like the stacked ring idea, but I have no idea where to source the
rings. I doubt I can bend up my own.
