Your most used hanging tools will be in your bags, so this will make an easy carry - just get a bucket from your taper. This is why it didn't get all the stars. The Bucket organizer with 61 (). Following this purchase, I saw a very good one at Sears for only 12.95, with pockets in the 42 range. pockets gets filled pretty quickly, so make sure you buy a bucket bag with MORE pockets than you THINK you'll need. Works to dry paintbrushes after cleaning and holds all the painting prep tools, while holding everything but the poles.Using it for general drywall work, it will hold the router, screw gun, tape in center - pretty easy to grab quickly, and loads of incidental tools, but tapers, DON'T put your good drywall knives in a bucket.
We had his last name embroidered on the top rim and it looks awesome. He likes that it is easy to find what he's looking for and it's durable. My son bought this to go with his Bucket Boss Rear Guard. He is an electrical apprentice and has to carry a lot of tools from job to job.
Shipping was very fast. I bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loved it.
Which is a great plus. My husband is into construction for a living. I recommend this for anyone who works with tools or even has them for the house. I give it a 10/10. His tools have been sort of organized til this great invention. It is durable enough even for him.
There are even some covered pockets to protect more delicate stuff as well as a holster for a cordless drill. Tools over a foot long won't store well in a bucket either. I have been a convert to the bucket organizing system for some time. This product can be found at Amazon for under twenty dollars, and makes a great gift to any handyperson on your list. Some tools fit better than others-heavier tools such as pipe wrenches and larger hammers and prybars are better suited to the old fashioned tool boxes, as they throw off the balance of the bucket. The bucket organizer is a heavy duty 600 denier ripstop fabric tool pouch that slips over a standard five gallon bucket(You provide the bucket, but do not dispair-any home improvement store carries them, or you can usually get them free from a contractor or neighbor who has an empty drywall bucket out at the curb as trash. Slip this pouch over the bucket and you now have 61 pockets of varied sizes that can accomodate a wide variety of hand tools.
I can even use the inside of the bucket as a trash can to keep the customers home free of wire scraps, stripped insulation, old outlets, screws, etc. It helps me not only find and keep tools organized, but also make sure I have all the tools accounted for at the end of the job before I leave.And the inside of the bucket is great for switches, outlets, and boxes.
I dunno. I use this system for my electrical tools.
I find it nice to be able to locate the tool I am looking for at a glance as the tools are tucked neatly into pockets on the insides and outsides of the bucket, not jumbled in a pile as is the case with most tool boxes. A lanyard on the side is a great way to keep electrical tape handy.
Depending on what tools are stored inside it, the bucket may become top heavy and unstable in the back of a truck-either load it strategically(heavier tools at the bottom), or brace it with other stuff to prevent it from falling over. I am sure there are other uses for this product besides tool storage-for example, office supplies, crafts, maybe even kids toys.
Heck, I have even seen them used as containers for cat litter and detergent).
