I NEED YOUR HELP FAST on a bank chair bucket

[Ketchn]

could you recover the/my new seat in camo please .....asking for a friend

A little constructive criticism here. Your expecting a whole lot out of a 5 gallon bucket. I've used the swivel buckets for dove hunting and they don't hold up well. Even with seat properly mounted to the lid with support it's still just a lid and a bucket. I saw you posted a cart to haul your setup. Why not just by a 3# camping chair that folds up in a bag? I just don't ever see the chance to relax completely with a chair mounted to a 5 gallon bucket lid. You said back support but may end up on your butt.

Might turn out pretty nifty

Doing some screwing and bolting. The prototype should be finished this morning. It was a fun project.

Attach seat with clamps


Now to add wood base to the seat and also sandwich the wood to the other side of the seat.


This is the prototype for the Carter bucket camp chair seat.


Video coming today. Go make yourself one. Have fun. It works too.

I'm also wondering with everything attached to the plastic lid won't it eventually crack and break? Maybe near the edge or lip.

$60 at Bass Pro or Cabelas you can get a rotating camp chair.

I might still do that. I just wanted to see if I could make one.

This is one I liked.

the bucket needs to match the chair , camo the entire thing and I will send you my mailing info .....

[BuckeyeCrappie]

Ketchn will be hunting out of it!

[shipahoy41]

I think Ketchn will be making his own. I just wanted to see if I could make an idea of mine into reality. Now I am going to gift myself the one I saw on Amazon, the Goplus swivel camping chair shown above.

That is a great idea for you to make with your tremendous skills. I can't wait to see what you do with my idea. Keep us posted. It takes about two hours for you to make it. kABOOM is the word. Go for it and have fun hacking my idea.

I think if you’re on uneven ground the one from Bass Pro or Cabela’s might have better legs with adjustment for terrain. Not sure about the Amazon one.
