    Bridgeport Users - Catch Pan Ideas

    I am looking for some ideas for a drip / catch pan for under my Boss6. I could fabricate it from steel angle and some steel sheet, but wondering if anybody has found a plastic light-weight alternative. A steel pan will be heavy and difficult to drain / clean. I need something to keep the way-lube out of the floor. Anybody found / built anything light-weight or plastic? I would consider making it from aluminum, if I had a way to weld aluminum.

    Thanks,
    Wayne

    Plastic shower curtain suspended form the ceiling with the bottom tucked into the catch tray works well
