    No success with the can of compressed air method, but the hair dryer method worked like a charm. We had three buckets stuck together. The first one took only about 90 seconds to separate and the last two came apart in about 30 seconds. I think we will glue some clothespins on those buckets as demonstrated in your video. Thanks for the advise from you and your contributors.

    • @itemlocation
      @itemlocation 9 месяцев назад

      @DwightStegall Similar to your idea, I have a stack of cups that I unstack and put one in each bucket as I am stacking the buckets. But the clothes pins gave me another idea. Cut the clothes pins shorter and glue them to the top bucket as he suggests. But, they wouldn't go into the bottom bucket, they would stay above the bottom bucket and JUST keep the buckets from vacuum sealing with each other. This technique would be similar to your method of putting something in the bottom bucket BUT with the shortened clothes pins, you would never lose the cups, 2x4s, or whatever spacers you are putting in the bottom bucket. This would be a permanent solution. Also, maybe a certain size piece of scrap wood would work better than a clothes pin.

    The air compressor trick does not work with my little DeWalt 20volt unit. You neeed a lot of air all at once, which it doesn't so. Tried the hair dryer method on a couple buckets and cme apart easily and fast. The bigest problem is handling and holding bucket sso i set them on the groundupside down. This allowed me to put a foot on one side with a foot on the handle which apreads the hold to two spots and squeeze it all with the other foot . The handle can be lifted up to help pull the stuck bucket which is now on the top. Worked great, thanks for the tip.. Besare of liquids that may sstill be in the botoom bucket you're pulling apart.

  • @harrisonhanson2998

    I tried a heat gun but after just my first try I was over it & came here. Ya just gotta remember to put something inside the bucket that’s going to have another bucket inside of it, or the clothespin idea works too. That’s very true about the handles too tho.

      That's a great idea! We are getting ready to put out another video on the subject because we keep getting great techniques like this from you and other members of our viewer family. Give me a little bit more detail if you will. How do you attach this section of hose, how long is it, and how far does it allow each bucket to slide into the one below it?

    All great ideas. As a painter most of the time I can flip the buckets upside down, step on the handle of the top bucket, get a good grip on the lip of the bottom bucket and brute force them apart. Using that method more often than not provides enough force to get the job done.

    I just separated two buckets with a two foot scrap of 1x2 and a flat pry bar. With the buckets lying on their side I laid the wood across the top bucket under were the handle is mounted and held it in place with my hand and some body weight. Then I stuck the hooked end of my flat bar between the wood and the rim of the bottom bucket and pried with a twisting motion. I was able to wedge them apart about a millimeter or two and repeated on the other side. After a few repetitions I was able to pull the buckets apart.

Just plastic sticking tightly together.

    How about blowing air using a straw?

      As long as you can keep the straw open for air flow, it'll work!

      If you can stop the buckets from creating a seal that gets stronger when the buckets are pulled apart, you've got it solved. Thanks for weighing in.

    Drill a couple of small holes in the bottom, if you don't care about water leaking out.

    This really helped me out. I have a ton of 66qt sterilite tubs and it didn't take much of a spray to get it loose while I struggled for over a day to unstack them. Ty!

      Ruby, the particular product is "Dust Buster", but it is simply compressed/pressurized air in a can. This product is used for blowing out dust in computer keyboards or cleaning out small spaces in a vehicle and such. It provides enough air to break the vacuum seal between two buckets as well. Thanks for watching and writing in! Best, DFJ

    So overcomplicated.
    1.Pick up the buckets and turn them upside down
    2. Look for the bottom buckets handle
    3. once you see it place lower the handle to the ground, once there step on the handle, your still holding the buckets I hope.
    4. simply pull up on the top bucket while pressing down with your foot so the handle stays put.
    5. tah dah.. takes about 5 seconds to do and not one tool needed.
