How do you make the wooden base for a manual water pump?

Question:i have an underground water tank, my jet pump went out again, got a new one, waiting for the guy to come install it. i got an old fashioned iron hand pump, for when the electric, or the pump goes out again, i can pump out water. got pipes, fittings, foot valve. i just dont know what kind of base to make ,to bolt pump to, over the pipe that will come out of the ground. any ideas?

Answers:
you can make a wooden floor cover using a treated good lumber of 1" X 6" for the floor and 2" X 6" lumber for the floor joist.

assemble the 2X6" lumber for the floor joist. depending on the top area of your water tank. arrange the floor joist at 0.60 meter spacing and 1.2 meter braces.

after that, use 1X6 lumber as flooring with at least 2 cm spacing between lumber.

as on the base of your pump, you can reinforce it by adding 2X6 braces.

use a lug bolt depending on the size of the slot at the base of your pump then bolt it on top of the 1X6 flooring.

its better if we can draw it here to make it easier to understand and explain

i dont know if this can help much because we havent seen the actual situation of your tank and your pump.
