Finding a basket would be the problem. In Bangkok you have to go to
the Sunday Market to find a real hand made rattan or bamboo basket any
more. and, they charge "handy craft" prices for them.

But your idea sounds good. I've got the air compressor, I can get
patched truck inner tubes for nearly give away prices and all I need
is the container.

Consider using the drum from a washing machine? Pretty sturdy, got
lots of nifty holes in the right places and can be welded.

Not a bad idea although in this 3rd world country they don;t throw
washing machines away - they fix 'em. But I will look around and see
what's available.

Thanks for idea, in any event.
