It’s 8/2024 and I’m in 110f heat in my kitchen full body sweat trying to get this darn lid. “Might have to use a mallet” is the biggest understatement. Out of desperation I turned to KZitem for help & the first hit was your video. THANK YOU! I was going to have to return these stupid buckets with one lid partially stuck on. You’re a lifesaver 11yrs later!

Oh my goodness, you are a lifesaver!! First time trying this style of lid (always used the ones they come with before), and I have been feeling like a complete idiot all evening. I even went on the manufacturer website, and they didn’t offer any more help than the worthless instructions on the lid. Thank you so much!!!!

Resourceful. Dangerous though if that bunker fluid or moves you could be looking at a terrible fall and injuries ...potentially a concussion. I think a rubber mallet is much safer and quirky the prevention of injury. I hate to think of anyone getting hurt.

Oh, what a battle to open a 6 gallon grain bucket, until I remembered I have these Ace 10" Grove Joint Pliers, and so happy to have found this video for the final step (no pun), in order to close it with the Gamma Seal Lid. Many thanks!

Helpful so long as you don't go above a certain weight and don't put too much weight on the center of that lid or bounce. Likely most people under 150 wouldn't have trouble. Over 200 though is a different story. I've climbed on one of these before and cracked the lid down the center.

So I bought a house in April that was very well taken care of except for the well. Guessing it’s the original one around 50 years old. It decided to stop working the day after Christmas and won’t have a new one for around a week. Not wanting to spend a fortune on water containers (the new well is expensive enough) thought I’d get some buckets and air tight lids to transport water for flushing the toilets and cleaning up in between showers. Don’t own a mallet but tried beating it into submission with a hammer and block of wood. Got the rim on 95% of the way but that last little chunk wanted nothing to do with it. Was about to go postal until I found this video, your trick worked like a charm! You’re living proof that not all heroes wear capes, thank you for your service!!!

Doing it that way would require a board that goes across the bucket. Lean on the wood in the center of the bucket and then smack it with the hammer on one side then the other, turning the board around the bucket like clock hands.

Even tired a hammer ( don't have a rubber mallet at the moment) It was so hard to get on that I wondered if I had an over-sized bucket. Nope...they're just HAAARD to get on there..and once they are....not coming off...EVER! Rockin product though and I have no regrets.
