I use the same thing. Have you come up with some type of cover for it?
I use a piece of plywood with a brick on top. The brick is so that the wind does not blow it away.

Many of the responses are not truly DIY, but work very well. For larger amounts of gear, and situations where I am rinsing gear several days in a row, my preferred method in the one Lynne mentioned - a 100 gallon Rubbermaid stock tank. These are fairly expensive to buy, but they are great to use. One downside is that you need quite a bit of water to fill them high enough to immerse gear. So, I don't fill mine except when I plan to use it for several days in a row, or need to immerse big objects (like a scooter, or tanks after I work on valves, etc). I don't like keeping it full of water for a long time, either, even with a cover.moving to new house and started thinking about a bit more intelligent way to rinse my gear than my bathroom tub mostly because of the sand clogging the tub ... anybody out there with any cool DIY tricks and/or custom tub in the garage or backyard?
