Revolving tool bucket

Abstract

A revolving tool bucket, comprises a standard 5 gallon bucket, a low profile heavy duty lazy susan pivot, and three (3) or four (4) low profile cushioned bumpers and optionally equipped with any of the fabric fitting tool liners. The cushioned bumpers are affixed to one side of the lazy susan, and the lazy susan pivot is then attached to the bottom of the bucket. The bucket to which the susan has been attached will now turn a continuous 360 degrees in either direction, allowing for easy access of any item contained. Any surface on which one might set the revolving bucket will be protected via the attachment of the cushioned bumpers, now serving as feet on the susan. All attachments can be made by use of standard nuts and bolts, assuring strength, durability & serviceability of design. As both the susan turntable and cushioned bumpers are of a low profile, the overall increased height of the bucket has been minimized so as to not create or contribute to an unsteadiness.
