A portable reservoir frame comprising:
- two or more interlocking panels, each of said panels comprising,
- a plate having an outer surface, an inner surface, a top edge, a bottom edge, a first edge and an opposing second edge, said first and said second edges being disposed between said top edge and said bottom edge;
- a first flange having an inner face, an outer face, and at least one hole perforating said first flange, said first flange attached to said plate and extending beyond the first edge;
- a second flange having an inner face and an outer face, said second flange attached to said plate and extending beyond the opposing second edge;
- and
- at least one peg attached to said second flange, each of said at least one peg adapted for insertion into one of said at least one holes of an adjacent interlocking panel.

A portable reservoir frame comprising:
- a plurality of interlocking panels, each panel comprising,
- a plate having an outer surface, an inner surface, a top edge, a bottom edge, a first edge and a second edge,
- a plurality of peg members secured to the first edge of the plate, and
- a plurality of holes disposed within the second edge of the plate, each of said holes sized to receive a corresponding peg member of an adjacent panel to create an interlocking connection.
1 more element
A method of constructing a portable reservoir frame comprising a plurality of interlocking panels, the method comprising:
- providing a plurality of interlocking panels, each panel comprising,
- a plate having an outer surface, an inner surface, a top edge, a bottom edge, a first edge and a second edge,
- a plurality of peg members secured to the first edge of the plate, and
- a plurality of holes disposed within the second edge of the plate, each of said holes sized to receive a corresponding peg member of an adjacent panel to create an interlocking connection;
- positioning a first panel of the plurality of interlocking panels adjacent a second panel;
- inserting the plurality of peg members secured to the first edge of the plate of said first panel into a corresponding hole of said plurality of holes disposed within the second edge of the plate of said second panel to create an interlocking connection and secure the first and second panels together;
- and
- repeating the steps of positioning and inserting until the portable reservoir frame is constructed.
