I found at least one leak, I found a 4 inch cut in the bottom inner side. I used a harbor freight plstic weld kit to try to fix it. I guess will see how it goes.

Can you share your experience with plastic welding? I would like to buy a wrld kit and want to learn more. Was it easy to weld the crack with this kit? Thanks.

I used the kit to fix a boat seat. its not hard but I don't think I melted enough in to fix it. the other problem is that 6x6 does lots of flexing. but will let you know.

Try, try again. (Did it break outright or over many rides?)

And did the weld break or did the HDPE break next to the weld?
I would re-weld it and then epoxy over it. Member thebuggyman1 used this epoxy: Epoxy by the Leading Epoxy Manufacturer | WEST SYSTEM Epoxy with good results in his Max II Bigfoot build: http://www.6x6world.com/forums/max-a...-tall-tub.html
