DIY ramp revival: fixed and removable?

In 2012 Rocky mentioned using a lighter and mesh to fuse on a water ramp. In the dialog it was mentioned that the ramp was removable for easy cleaning.

The picture link is broken and I can't seem to visualize how the ramp can be fused to the tub and removable at the same time.

Any ideas of does anyone recall what this looked like. I'm very curious.

No, this method permanently binds the ramp to the plastic.

She went with zipties not long after, because it was too hard to clean.

Was the ramp fixed at the top lip and on to the bottom? Was it attached to the lid and the lid had a large hole cut into it?

I read the thread, the concerns about fumes for people and ventilation, and she did mention she changed to zip ties. However sometimes if I can see an picture my brain expands the idea to different uses. Just hoping for a diy brain jolt.

Just the top lip, so it couldn't fall off. The bottom was free so it could be cleaned behind.

It was just like the zip tied ramps many people are using, just melted together.
