That's an excellent idea if I ever need to build a waterer,
deb .... at present I don't think I will need an additional waterer. I'm using the adult waterer dropped down (from hanging) and resting on the floor. The chicks have no problem drinking from it, nor does mom. Saves me extra work. I enjoy watching momma drink and then the little chicks will emulate her... a quick beak jab into the water thrusting the head upward to swallow.... They are so adorable!
Not using a lathe or any electrical tools unless I absolutely have to in which case I ponder that even before resorting to the power switch. My wood work and sculptural carving is done all by hand using very 'sharp' knives, gouges, chisels, (boxes of bandaids), files, hammers, shaving horse with draw knives, etc. I enter my
zen zone when I'm making wood chips. It's the wood chips that I'm actually producing for the birds, garden walkways and compost... though interesting enough what is remaining after I make the desired amount of chips, I can call, exhibit and sell as sculpture....

Aaah spoken as a true artist....
really. But even a zero tolerance tool maker can make tools without power. Its all art.... weather working with hammer and chisel and knife or Diamond blade and file... I only draw.... make things work on paper its craftsmen like you that make ideas come to life.
