Default Omega Paw Self-Cleaning Litter Box

Now I have two. Both modified. Packaging tape along the right side
seam. A wide plastic strip inside to help the clumps gently roll over
the waste drawer instead of bouncing off of it. Put a glob of hot
melt glue where the grating/filter meets the bottom so it can't pop
out of its slots down there. Also... Most of the bottommost flimsy
plastic strip should be cut away. Just leave at least 1/4" on each
side of the three vertical posts. Don't cut it on the outside of the
outer vertical posts where it's reasonably sturdy. The inner two
flimsy strips are just in the way of the flowing litter, they are
useless obstructions.

Also...

When handling the box, avoid grabbing it by the waste drawer entry
point. That is a very weak point and it might easily break the thing.

Another tip I think someone wrote... Tip it to the left a little bit
first, before starting the process.

Use a powerful standup flashlight to help you see what you're doing.
And as everybody here knows, make sure there's plenty of litter in
the thing.
