Step 4 Drill Two Holes for the Power Squid Cord

In each of the two bucket parts, drill a small hole about an inch from bottom of what you've determined to be the "back." This is for the cord. Our first hole didn't turn out very well because we didn't clamp the bucket down well enough, but our second hole turned out very cleanly, and didn't warp the bucket at all. Pop a 3/8" rubber grommet into each hole to protect the electrical cord from those freshly sharp metal edges. I guess that's pretty obviously necessary, right?
