    I had intended to use a plastic bag inside the can, I brought home a non scented trash bag from work, my wife inadvertently used that bag in a garbage can. I did not want to brine in fabreeze so I went straight bucket.

    Dropped a corner pulley for the cable and chipped the dang thing, lucky I have a spare. It's the little things, if I was selling it a chip on a pulley no big deal probably not noticed. Once you build it for the grandson's standards change.
