    I must admit, the exposition was flawless, got a little sleepy during the second act but the denouement really brought it home. Can't wait to see it at Cannes

    Shoot some air between them. Of course, you must have an air compressor. Yes, another tool to buy!!

      Thanks. No air compressor needed if you place some spacers. 😎

    Need to get a second bucket to try this out...

    Try dropping one of those small blocks in the bottom of a bucket before placing another one on top. The block will keep the buckets from nesting tightly.

      A piece of 2x4 will work better that way. But you’ll need to keep track of it if you fill and empty the bucket with water, dirt, gravel, etc. Gluing spacers on the outside keeps them out of the way. 😎

    Seems like a great idea, but though the glue might stick OK to wood, the blocks will likely pop right off the plastic once they're bumped even moderately hard. I'm thinking superglue or epoxy, but they don't stick well to plastic either! Dunno!

    • @HacksbyDad
      @HacksbyDad  3 месяца назад +1

      Yeah… the type of glue is debatable. My spacers have been on roughly 10 buckets for over 3 years and only 2 or 3 fell off. 😎

    We would think companies that make it would use it to know the problem to limit its use but Noooo. The owners probably never used their buckets or they know the issue and dont want people to stack them but to throw them away if not in use to just spend money on another one it seems.
    On your next video you how how to easily unstuck them? :) Just a thought.

      Thanks. There are a lot of videos that show how to separate stuck buckets but not many on how to prevent the problem. 😎

    Elmer's glue is water soluble. It gets wet & it's history. It also won't bond wood & plastic well. An epoxy is more ideal.

    So no solution on how to unfuck them when they're stuck???
    I could've made a video showing you how to not stack them inside one another anymore.

      You don't even have to glue anything or need anything.

      ​@@jeremiahbullfrog9288That's why I said my reply. I thought this was a troll video.
      I've had it to where you can't get those buckets apart.
      It's a no brainer to go forward & not place the buckets like that again but how TF do you get them apart when stuck? Sometimes it's like they're glued.
      I mean stick the wood blocks in the bottom of the bucket.
      Don't place them like that in the first place.
      Hell, stick ANYTHING in the bottom of the bucket to stop them from ending up that way.
      But how to get them apart lol?
