Anyone ever cut those Rubbermaid containers. We have a few (ok, more than a few) and I was wondering how people cut them? Any steps you use? How does the connecting tunnel look like (how big is it, where you bought it, etc.)? Thanks in advance
ThanksIt's easy enough to cut using a small hand/hack saw. You just have to be careful about smoothing out the edges you cut, they are rough an sharp! Think tortoise condo and have different depths and substrate even temps and humidity. Russians will travel and pace and redecorate the enclosure for you until it's 'perfect'. For them.
That would work great I'd think.@kmartin thinking of using a hot knife, is that a good idea?
I have used a hot knife for a long time now with many many tubs. It never leaves a sharp edge, it sorta seals/welds the edge so you will not get cracks or tears from the cut edge. I use a sharpie pen to draw where the cut will be and follow it with the knife. I have used a 'vinyl' knife for the concrete mixing tubs that I have modified, that plastic is much more rigid and takes the knife. The rubbermaid plastic is too flexible for a vinyl knife in my opinion.@kmartin thinking of using a hot knife, is that a good idea?
