I've been organizing and cleaning around the shop this morning and was about to throw out an empty kitty litter bucket when I had a little eureka moment.
The 28 lb. (12.7 kg) size is rectangular and as such is much more useful for storage than a round bucket. Infrequentlly used items (like my spindexer and tilting angle table) can be stored inside the sealed bucket for a long time without fear of rusting or dust & grit buildup. I sprayed them lightly with WD-40 before sealing the lid and covered the printed-on label with duct tape so it'd look more...professional. ;D
A quick label on the PC printer and a final layer of transparent tape finishes it up. Now I gotta get another one for my rotary table and some other stuff. C'mon kitty, let's get with the program!
