Nice. I use a 5 gal to throw bulk of my lures and gear in I will now be customizing one just like this very soon. Thumbs up good video man!
This is really the best tackle box DIY I have ever seen. I am an avid fisher(wo)man and I love to DIY anything I can and I even work in a bait and tackle shop. With some refinements and a few adjustments I really think you have something that could really sell. You could do this in a way where things are inter changeable for different kinds of fishermen, like fly fishing, off shore, creek fishing, freshwater trolling, and beach fishing and other kinds because they will all need different tackle and no joke this could really be marketable. I have a 3D printer and I make my own lures to my own rod mounts with a 360 degree swivel for light tackle on my john boat/duck hunting boat with a diy pop up and fully removeable duck blind I built myself. With some upgrades and refinements while still using these same materials and maybe some 3D printed rig wraps, maybe a removeable divided hook box in a circular shape that went around the inside. basically just like your flat tackle box dividers but instead using small plastic individual boxes you connect together that fits the inside of your bucket to hold loose hooks. You could add a small dowel onto the one or two or how ever many of the downspouts to hold like two standard size rolls of fishing line and cut a pencil grip in half and use it has a stopper. This even creates an easy way for someone to put new line on their reels because it would hold the spools as you respooled youre reel and store them too without ever having to take it out of the tackle box! You could easily add cup holders reccessed into the top so you could still add a velcro or snap on removeable seat cushion and make the reccessed cup holders with to pieces of CPVC - which is thinner so you have a larger inside diameter but just as sturdy-about 2.5-4 inches long depending on what someone wanted with end caps on the bottom and use one piece as the out side and put insulating wrap in between the two pieces of CPVC and it would keep your drinks cold. or you could add them to the out side of the bucket so you can sit and still have a full size insulated drink holder. There are endless possibilities to this idea, using the materials like you are already using just refining things a little and making a couple of different models to accomodate bigger boats which what youve made would do fine on a jon boat to a center console or pontoon for hat matter and easily making interchangeable inserts by using either 3D printed insert holders/bottom braces/side braces or using velcro or snaps where the base part of the snaps are super guled onto the bucket -same with the velcro-and every interchangeable accessory piece would have the other end attached to it. You could make a few different models for instance one for a beach or shore fisher man ad a pvc frame on the bottom with either real beach tires for those expensive beach carts or the cheaper bubble wheels or even extra large diameter PVC about 6.7 inches wide to get the large area like a beach tire and add something for traction and something to keep sand from inside the pvc piece that goes across the bottom of the square bottom pvc mount for the tackle box, that the tires attache to so it can roll. Add a back stand support with pvc or metal pipe cut at a 30 degree angle at the bottom so it sticks into the sand (angle just an idea to keep it steady in the sand) with handle out of pvc so they can roll it and a front brace that folds out and sticks into the ground so you could add a pvc rod holder on either side, or a rod holder on one side a umbrella holder on the other (testing would be needed to see how everything would line up). But kid you have some that you could actually sell. Smoothing out details and adding a paint job with your logo or a brand name you come up with (you could even hydrodip the bucket because its so cheap and easy to do and add a huge increase in price while still being cheaper than these big time tackle boxes from huge companies) I have a tackle box that has two compartments on the actual lid that are pretty much useless, and it has a 4 inch deep open catch all tool type area directly under the lid and that is attached to a case with a flip down front "door" that has 7 identical pull out plastic divided tackle storage that ends up being boxes full of mixed hooks and tangled lines, lure and rigs after a boat trip because it doesnt have functionality and honestly it is taller and wider than your bucket, and wheighs a ton and doesnt even hold that much and it was over 160$ and that was on sale. You can easily disguise these cheaper easy to use lightweight materials into rig wraps, lure holders which i like the way you have them now I would just make everything interchangeable and super glue the correct piece of velcro or snap to it. Let me know if you would like to discuss this more because like I said I really thing you have something that could go very far but sticking to the diy materials and maybe a 3D printed item here or there which is still super low cost and light weight, The circular design is unique and our bait and tackle store greatly supports local small business or inventors fly tyers, and other people that have an awesome product that will sell so we make a little money and you make the rest. We are not a company that is trying to make millions of dollars, the owner just wants to enjoy owning a bait and tackle shop, not stress out, not try to be the next Field and Stream, support local and up and coming entrepreneurs and help the community by sponsoring charity fishing tournaments any time he can afford it. Including the owner we have 3 full time employees and usually 2 high school kids that work two days a week going to the creek to fill up the huge live bait water holding tubs by hand with 5 gallon buckets. (I am going to make them an easy 9$ pump so they dont gotta do that but then we wouldnt need them but for 30 minutes so its a catch 22) Anyways like I said I am an Entrepreneur myself. I own 6 companies that I started from scratch myself doing all of the work, and have founded 4 charities that I self funded for the first 4 years out of my own pocket while always working a full time job. Im no millionaire. I still work and I dont make anywhere close to 6 figures a years but everything from all of my companies is hand made by me and one of the charities is an Aquatic animal rescue to give people a place to bring their fish when they can no longer keep them and the rescue is in a building on my property opposite end of the property from my house thank god because when you have a rescue with about 600 fish and you have an artisan small aquarium and tropical fish breeding and selling company with about 200 breeders and on average getting about 60 babies a day and working all day them comming home and caring for all of those fish which the aquarium company just funds a small portion of the rescue but I dont make a dime. You put in what you get out. You got something. Figure out if you want to put in the work and let me know. Id love to get with you on getting a legit prototype together and see if my boss would be interested in selling them. If he isnt I am and I already have the network of customers that I know would snatch these up in a second. Gotta keep material prices low, yet look expensive and refined-easily done btw-, is light weight, a couple models say a boat model and a land or beach model to start and the interchangeable options which you charge separately for so each model comes with the basics and let people add on all the things they want. $$$$$$$$$$$$ think about it kid. contact me a lowcountryaquaticsrescue@yahoo.com thats the best email where I will most likely catch it and actually read it because my business ones have way too many subscription ads and bullcrap that I could easily miss your email. Good luck and great work. Very creative. and ACTUALLY SOMETHING PEOPLE WOULD USE!!!!!!!!!
Lowcountry Aquatics Rescue how long you spent writing that comment lol 😂
Great content! Relax and slow down in your speech and actions. Good work
Where did you buy those lids. All I can find are locking lids
Awesome project man! I’m gonna screw several 6 inch PVC tubes in a round pail to keep my tip ups separate and then have some space in the middle for miscellaneous fishing gear! Just gonna use it for ice fishing because I already have a sweet tackle box. Thanks buddy, good luck fishin!
Is hot glue strong enough?
Interesting. You spent a lot of time on this. Do you actually use it?
Sorry I must of missed something, but what is the purpose of the down spouts?
put tip ups in them
@@tims.5995 I'd put rod holders in them
I think I will just stick to my tackle box!
I like it.. Get your ass an investor and make a drop in kit for 5 gallon buckets before the Chinese do!
