So... maybe I'm a few decades late to the party with this one, but I just ran across this in the big box store today, a 5 gallon bucket with graduations. This has just made life so much easier... thought I would share.

You all make me feel so much better. I thought I was really the only one.

Oohh that'd be great for so many things. Lol I never thought of that. Thanks for the heads up!

What! How have I missed that? Guess I need to head over to home depot....

Thanks for sharing

I also love Gamma lids. When they are on sale I always buy a couple.

I use those lids for so much. Emergency food and water storage, maple sap buckets, fish buckets.

I have a similar bucket and it's so helpful
 
BTW, You cut the old thin handle off, I use a pair of side wire cutters, cut at an angle, and peel the old handle off. Also once you snap the new handle on, it is almost impossible to get it off without damaging it.
