Wait until I tell The Furry Guy that the thread about his Redneck Hot Tub has led to the Maple Leaf Waver. LOL!For the handymen out there who wanted "blueprints," the outside trashcan has a bit of gravel in the bottom--below the spout. The inner trashcan has 1/2" holes drilled about 1" apart all over the bottom 1/3 (sides only, not the bottom). The inner trashcan is then filled with layers of fiber-fil, old pillows, gravel, and charcoal.The heater is just a length of black tile--anything dark that would absorb the sun's heat would work.
 
Do you have a fridge on your porch? LOL couldn't help but be funny... sorry!
On a serious note I would love a hot tub that doesn't get so hot your skin screams when ya get in!

Sorry, Jenni, no computer-ready pics of The Furry Guy less furry. He is, however, very cuddly, even when he's painted like a leopard.

He had his face painted at the company picnic.And, as far as the Maple Leaf Waver is concerned, you probably don't want to know. LOL!
 
FYI: My hubby and boys LOVED your pics and are well on their way to building their own. LOL
 
Pretty soon I think we're going to need a CS contest for inventions or costumes! It sounds like we've got some pretty good contenders on here!
 
Well, in that case, here's The Kat Lady at her bes...er...at the theater with me.
