I would have traded all of the
coffee cans and cardboard inventory
boxes I used as a builder to store
nails, pipe fittings, and spare
hardware for one Drop-in-the-Bucket.
This storage system uses a standard
five-gallon plastic pail (like the ones
joint compound comes in) to house
up to five stackable interlocking
trays. Each tray is 25/8 inches deep
and 101/8 inches in diameter and is
divided into four compartments. A
convenient molded handle at the
center makes the tray easy to
remove and carry around. Unlike
the cover on a drywall pail, the lid
on the Drop-in-the-Bucket is made
of a softer material so it's easier to
open and close. I can't think of a
better way to
