Swiss Cheese Yo Bucket! A 2" Hole saw make short work of this. Stay above the fill line! Keep at least the top ring intact to keep structural stability.

Top Line: Your mat and shade cloth must be shorter than 14" in a standard 5 gal bucket, so the lid can go on.

Shade Cloth - 13" - I started with 14" like a moron. Go with 13.5" or 13" instead, or be ready to trim some off.

Double-Layer Filter: The shade cloth is a filter to the outside. Lots of dust at Burning Man, so I used two layers for better filtration. You could use only one if you really wanted to.

Cooler Mat = 13" Start at 13" for the cooler mat. You can easily trim 1/2" off if you decide it's too high.

IMG_0595
Too wide! The cooler mat comes 30x36". Turns out 36" is bigger than you want. Easy to trim with scissors. Or be smart and use the 30" side instead!
