Airhose connection to bucket?

[dvine]

Hello!
I have a huge problem that i can't figure out how to solve. I'm gonna gonnect my airhose to the bottom of the bucket (bubbel bucket) but i can figure out how to make a hole, put the hose trough it and the seal of so that water don't get out around the hose hole. I tryed to glue the hose with hotglue and it just melts the hose and i also tryed to use different glues but none worked so far. Then i came up with the idea to permanently glue a copper tube to the bucket so i could easly just connect the hose to that but the damn coppar wont be glued to te bucket. The glue loosens eiter at the bucket plastic or at the copper tube.

I have tried to find the simpliest things of all that would work but i have not found it anywhere, a small plastic tube with 5mm at diameter.

So what i would like you to help me with is how can i take my hose trough the lower part of the bucket and still keep it waterproof?

First, the correct idea is to take the air hose throught side above the water line, then fix it to the sides and botton, I just use duct tape for this works like a dream.

Go to any hardware store, homegrown store, whatever is easy for ya. Buy Goop, plumbers goop is best, but any of the goops will work. Make sure everything to be sealed is clean and completely dry. Squeeze out some goop onto a paper plate, stir it up with a wooden match, let is stand for a minute, then do your sealing. After an hour, go over and reseal it again, a thurough coat. Let cure for 24 hours or 36. Good luck.

I just drill a hole just as tight as the air hose is ,above the water line and work it in .If the air stone floats I put a nut are 2 on the line.

I managed to make a hole in the bottom of the bucket but im not so sure it was a good idea to do so, when im gonna remove the bucket from its spot then i cant simply just disconnect the airhose and remove the bucket becouse then it will poor out water fom the hole. However its not the hard to fix the problem.
