I need to make a Bath Tub Base for animal grooming.
I so far acquired a free Bath Tub ( i have not taken measurements yet) from a house remodel ( can post pics with measurements in a bit)
I will have this tub Outside and i will figure some make shift plumbing after the base is built ( i already have a hose with hot/cold water just need drain plumbing installed)
The finished tub need to be about 3 3/4 - 4 1/4 feet tall once finished this will help me from bending over i am over 6 feet tall
I have Little to no xp with wood work but i am mechanic by trade as well and have alot of tools already.
i do not know all the tools / products i will need for this project .
i have tryed to google a few d.i.y and im still at lost.
so far i know the base for the tub should be
Made From Wood
Use Screws instead of nails since dogs weight will be shifting alot
some soft of foam is to be used under the tub but idk why or how or what it even is.
i know i will have to use silicone to seal the tub and let it cure for 24hrs
i will need a saw but what kind is best for this project
i just do not want to buy wood and waste my hard earned $$ ..
any help plz
