There were many great replies, both for experiences with adhesives as

well
as sources of info for bulkhead fittings.


Yes, and from the replies, I never got any confirmation abotu any adhesive
really working on rubbermaid containers


And, valuable information to pass along in the future. Nothing easily
available will bond most Rubbermaid plastics. Specifically to the wheels on
their lawn carts, Only 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Structural Plastic Adhesive DP-8005
will do, and it's not available to the consumer.

So, you're back to bulkhead fittings and you should have enough info to
build your own from parts at Lowes, order any of the choices online, from
say the store in jan's link, or discover that the wax ring experiment works
or doesn't work.

Again, there were several great sites posted, both with DIY info, and
commercial parts ordering sites, but both you and Garee apparently

missed
all of them.


No, I did see them, and visited them,.. and they were posted about 2 weeks
after the original thread was started.


There was no indication of that from your posts, and Derek kept saying
that no links were being posted, when they were. The failed adhesives
discussion delayed getting to the heart of your problem. Good luck,
anyway....
