That is a pretty beefy looking bucket.
Looking forward to seeing the other attachments you come up with.

I would weld a tube across the top to keep the back from bowing if you do anything heavy work
i sold this bucket to a landscape outfit for snow removal it was 3/8 it had no flex in it to start with . I'm building some buckets now Jess
