comment How do I fix a leaky spigot on a rain barrel?
I ended up redoing my spigot with marine epoxy. It works great! The gasket/washer/nut method was fine...but, for barrels that were curved at the bottom it only worked if the spigot was above the curved area which left about 6 inches of water my spigot could never drain.

Ok, that worked. I had to buy galvanized conduit nuts and washers...I slipped on a rubber o-ring on each side. It sealed up nicely!

The spigot screws into the two nuts, and then the nuts tighten the gasket and washer against the rain barrel?
