Building a Rubbermaid Hydro Bubbler Unit - Cheap and Effective

Getting started - first the parts list:
(1) 10-gallon Rubbermaid Roughneck storage bin (Lowes $5.50) (1) ½ inch I.D. clear vinyl flexible tubing, 12? length (Lowes $0.50) (1) ½ inch plastic elbow (90 degree) for flexible pipe (hydro store $1.50) (1) rubber grommet for plastic elbow (hydro store $1.00) (6) net pots of your choosing ?? I used 6? square pots (hydro store $1.50 each) (1) aquarium air pump, dual output (Walmart $15.00) (2) aquarium air stones ?? 6? length (Walmart $1.60 each) (1) roll of aquarium tubing ?? 10?? length (Walmart $2.50)
-------------------------------------------------------
approximate cost ~ $38.20
Tools needed:
Utility knife (or jigsaw if you have one handy) Drill ¼ ? drill bit ¾? drill bit
We'll get going in a minute by building the base of the bubbler.
To give you an idea of what is possible, I just completed a grow using 2 of these 6-pack units that yielded 4 oz of Black Domina in one unit (2 plants), and 3 oz of Blueberry in the other unit (3 plants) using a 400 watt HPS in a 4'x2' closet that was 6.5' tall.
Fantastic instructions
The instructions i used personally are here -> clickey!
