Bucket Organizers

[Farmall 1066]

Got several of these, mostly Husky brand, set up for home repair tasks. One for carpentry, painting, plumbing and electrical.
Love them for this type of stuff, and the task based organization works well for me.

Just wondering who uses them and what brands you prefer?

I'd probably have some of those bucketboss ones - if it wasnt for the cost of Intl shipping ..

Whats available in Aus ... are rather ordinary/overpriced ...


So this my yard sale score, used for random jobs ..

I have a couple Bucket Boss setups. My sister in law was one of their designers, before the company was sold and everything went overseas.

Stuart, did Duluth buy them out ?

I've had more of those types of things than I can remember. They all end up too heavy to drag around the job all day long.

If I have it correctly, the founders of Bucket Boss sold the company to Fiskars in 1996, and within a couple years Fiskars moved production overseas. Sometime later they sold the company to someone else. Those guys that founded the company went on to start Duluth Trading.

I loved mine when I did electrical work. but now I find there are too many hidden places and when you don't repeatedly use something daily I forget and then buy more of whatever. I think I have bucket boss ones as well. originally was going to have one for plumbing/electrical/misc but eventually realized the bucket is just a black hole for parts so stopped using them.

I'm a transmission tech for a telephone company, in other words I work on and install equipment that makes the internet work. I have a bucket at home but it wouldn't work for me at work. I have to be able to reach into my van and get tools out and the bucket would be too high. After having a tool belt for 25 years I and a co-worker just ordered this. We did research for a couple hours and this seemed to suit us the best.

Used a bucket boss for quite a while while I was still in the trades. As mentioned above they get real heavy real quick because there is so much room. Also, the small stuff always seems to migrate to the bottom regardless of how carefully you put things "in their place"
