I'm looking to build a container to hold mud and water for a very specific exercise training.
– It doesn't need to look good
– It doesn't need to last more than a few weeks
– It should be able to hold most of the water for at least a couple weeks
– Can be above ground or in ground
– I should be able to build it at least two feet deep and 6 feet long
What are some of the cheapest materials I could use to hold water? I could just dig a big hole in the ground but I feel like that would lose water very quickly. Also I'd prefer something that's not difficult to dispose of, so concrete wouldn't be good. Maybe some kind of cheap plastic shipping container? Cover a bunch of wood 2×4's with foam seal?
This is perfect, but way above my price range:

How about you did a 4'x6'x2' hole and then get a 12'x16' waterproof tarp and lay it in the hole. Make sure the neighbors know you're not burying someone. See picture of waterproof tarp below.
