Your most used hanging tools will be in your bags, so this will make an easy carry - just get a bucket from your taper. 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. This is why it didn't get all the stars.
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. He likes that it is easy to find what he's looking for and it's durable. We had his last name embroidered on the top rim and it looks awesome.
I bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loved it. Shipping was very fast.
My husband is into construction for a living. Which is a great plus. His tools have been sort of organized til this great invention. It is durable enough even for him. I give it a 10/10. I recommend this for anyone who works with tools or even has them for the house.
I dunno. I use this system for my electrical tools. I am sure there are other uses for this product besides tool storage-for example, office supplies, crafts, maybe even kids toys. This product can be found at Amazon for under twenty dollars, and makes a great gift to any handyperson on your list. I have been a convert to the bucket organizing system for some time. Tools over a foot long won't store well in a bucket either. A lanyard on the side is a great way to keep electrical tape handy. There are even some covered pockets to protect more delicate stuff as well as a holster for a cordless drill.
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. Heck, I have even seen them used as containers for cat litter and detergent). 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.
