My latest mini project. Myra and I both complained about not having a trash can up front. I used a 1 1/2" pvc cap, filled it with grout for weight (left over from tiling bedroom shower) after putting a plastic straw in the middle to make room for the screw. I had to file a taper on the bottom edge of the cap to get it to fit all the way in the table mount hole. NOTE: drill hole and put a screw part way in the cap before testing the fit, don't ask why, just do it!!!

I mounted the cap to the bottom of trash can, secured with a fender washer and screw. I ended up having to glue some foam to the bottom of the can to make it stable, there was about 1/4" gap.

Lifts out easily but I think it will stay in place well due to the weight in the cap.
