I did that with a piece of kraft paper. Once I marked the feet, I moved the tub off to the side. I them marked the center of the circles I had drawn, directly on the floor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" src=\"http:\/\/theshanty.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20230618_110010_small.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-96\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, I ran to the hardware store and got a 1 3\/8&#8243; forstner bit . The tub&#8217;s feet are 1 1\/4&#8243; in diameter, so I got a bit with a little wiggle room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2217\" height=\"1709\" src=\"http:\/\/theshanty.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20230619_083549.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-97\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I then drilled about halfway into the laminate floor, creating four divots for the tub&#8217;s feet. Trust me that was nerve wracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls src=\"http:\/\/theshanty.us\/videos\/20230618_113042.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Then I did a test fit. I slid the tub into place. All four feet dropped into place like a dream!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls src=\"http:\/\/theshanty.us\/videos\/20230618_113800.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The final step was to fill all four divots with construction adhesive and put the PVC &#8220;glue&#8221; on the drain pipe. Now we just need to wait about 48 hours (I know that&#8217;s overkill) for the adhesive to set up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" src=\"http:\/\/theshanty.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/20230618_122134.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-95\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I cannot wait to use it. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oh!
