I use paint sticks you can get from most places that sale paint. I get them from wal-mart and Lowes. I just ask for a stick or two everytime I am going there I have a few put back for when I need them . I sew a cover to cover the card board and cut the paint stick to fit. craft knife works. and any box you can find. cut out the size of bottom of your tote. I like FREE!!!!
Sorry you put the paint stick in the cover with the card board and sew it up

I used to use plastic canvas from Hobby Lobby - Ultra stiff large sheets. These days my husband cuts from sheets of plexiglass we buy at Menards. I like the plastic better, and use scraps from the bag to cover the base. This means they are often scrappy, and make a brighter bottom.
