Samsung Clothes Washer Anti-Leak Drip Bin

<p>Samsung washers have this unique “feature" whereby it will randomly eject water out the vent/exhaust port.</p><p>I know what your thinking… Why not FIX the washer so it doesn't leak. &nbsp;Well yes, except that the washer doesn't leak 99% of the time. &nbsp;But one out of 60+ washes, perhaps due to other users overloading it, or not remembering the clean the filter, or whatever random bad day this washer has, it does leak.</p><p>I've traced the source of the water to this overflow/vent and that seems to be where it's coming from, a quick search of the Internet confirms I'm not the only one with this random problem. &nbsp;So, instead of some water on the floor, which trips my leak sensor, and shuts off the whole-house water supply - I came up with this, water is contained in the bin and can be mopped up with a towel, sponge, or the wet/dry vac.</p><p>I considered making a version with a flag and a float that would rise up above the back of the washer to indicate if the bin was full or not, but I instead decided to leave some holes on the corners where I could cable tie another leak sensor rope or wires in the future.</p><p>Simply slide this under the factory vent and attach by driving some small screws through the two side tabs (better to pre-drill the factory tabs so you don't split the plastic)</p>
