    Default Disposable Bucket Liner

    Does anyone know of the product that can be used for an insert into a cedar bucket? This is similar to that which is used for disposable diapers.

    Grocery store bags fit a five gallon plastic bucket. Just use it and tie up the top.

    Yep, the kitchen bags seem to be the bucket liner of choice -==- as seen on TV with the Bumper Dumper (tm):

    The Wag Bag degrades. What do you do with the kitchen garbage bag when you're finished with it??

    All of the grocery bags I've encountered leak. A lot.
    Not the sort of thing you'd likely look forward to.
    The Bumper Dumper looks a bit too public to my eye.

    "Normal"? The same way you dispose of diapers -- the garbage.

    "Proper"? Dig a hole and compost it, using the cheap 'poo powder' sold by doggie-doo composters.

    (I use this for the waste that our Ruthie magically produces in the back yard)


    "Safe"? Someone else's dumpster...

    ;0 )

    As for privacy, the Bumper Dumper can be disconnected and leaned against a tree...or Humvee.

    Thanks for the input guys. Looks like Wag Bags is the way to go.
    We have a genuine, last, Herreshoff Cedar Bucket, that came from under Skipper's Drafting Table. It will be carried aboard our H28 "Bright Star"

    PS "Bright Star" does have a proper head & holding tank.

    As to proper disposal - sort of:
    "Drounded" fishermen too often get their soggy bodies retrieved in these parts w/ no life jacket and the fly undone. Too much beer, disposing overboard, closed casket funeral, quietly removed from the gene pool.

    Put a big handful peatmoss in the bag first. When finished fling it into the nearest dumpster just like doggy poo.

    Great. Putting sh*t in other folks' dumpsters. Take it home and put it in your own garbage.

    I am presuming that we are at a marina here and not strolling down some residential street with a bucket in one hand and a handful of bags in the other. That we have accumulated these bags of human waste while aboard the boat and when we came ashore thought that it was time to dispose of the collection. If you prefer you may save them and take them home.

    Just don't go bin diving where very many of the boaters use a cedar bucket. ;-)

    Dave. It's a **JOKE**, capiche? I'm very serious about pollution of all kinds, as well as taking responsibility for your own waste (of all kinds).

    I remember setting up this reenactment camp in a backcountry Sierra campsite with a lovely stream running right through it. Some authentic rednecks had camped there earlier -- you could tell they were the real article, as along with other trash they'd tossed the disposable diapers in the stream...UPSTREAM of camp.

    Throne, That takes re-enactments to a new level. Now you get a chance to re-enact all of the diseases of the period too.

    Thorne-

    I was wasn't asking about your posts. I knew the bumper fitting was a joke... or at least pretty humorous!

    There is such a thing as taking authenticity too far, y'know.

    ;0 )

    We like to push the envelop by doing semi-period dentition. I have a bottle of theatrical tooth-black and a handkerchief, and appoint one of the camp followers as "The Evil Tooth Fairy".

    She goes around, has the guys open up, dries the selected teeth and paints 'em out. Only problem is some folks don't understand it isn't for real...

    The Bad Teeth Boys



    Dave, I figured you understood, but some folks get (literally) dumped on by drive-by trash-dumpers and may take my (hopefully) humorous remarks seriously.
