    Cut buckets in half and put lid on top to double your bucket supply . Don't use to big of boards but rip them and spread out . If short and dropped out the concrete usually helps then land upright . We just toss ours in and most land upright . Wood tries to float and concrete in bucket pulls
    down .

    Rip fence set at 1/2 width of bucket height. I remove metal handles and spin bucket cutting all the way around keeping flat bottom against rip fence .

    Drilling holes at 90 degree angles and putting PVC or rebar thru the will help keep them upright. Bending 2 down can help them stay put on fairly steep inclines...
