Okay, here is a real dummy question. Can anyone describe to me now they cut
down the plastic milk carton or laundry detergent bottle to serve as the
"bathtub" on the Philmont trek (so that you do not cut off the handle).
I've been examining my Clorox bottle which I'd like to cut down for our crew
meeting tomorrow night but not sure how to come up with a decent tub that
will sit on the ground without tipping over and still keep the handle.
