Apso Bath Tub

This was made from a plastic "garden stool" and a Sterlite 38 qt plastic box from Walmart (sic). Four 1" bolts and nuts secured the "tub" to the stool (be careful to drill slowly because the plastic box is very brittle). The sides were cut out using a wood burning tool, since any type of saw will shatter the plastic. Total cost is about $12. We also bought a plastic Rubber Maid stool to sit on in the shower. Ken also drilled some holes in the ends of the box to let out the water so it doesn't get too heavy. It is very stable, and the apso bath is now less of a back-breaking ordeal.
I draped a plastic shower mat over the bottom to make footing secure.
