Bucket-Builders Portable Workstations consist merely of standard 5-gallon buckets, lengths of 2x4s, specially designed bucket lids, and an optional top board. Each Bucket-Builder lid, with slots that cradle and lock in place a 2x4 or cradle a pipe, serves as a bucket top, bucket bottom, or between-buckets connector. Depending on the number of 2x4s, buckets, and lids needed, one can set up virtually anywhere (in reportedly just a few minutes) a knee-high bench, a waist-high workbench, a bench, a sawhorse or other configurations.
