The bucket itself can take over a day to print. I used 3 walls and it's a bit heavy, but sturdy. 2 walls and 15% infill should work fine. 0.4mm nozzle with 0.25mm layers. 

The bucket should print without support If needed, drop the model down 0.5mm to increase the area on the legs. 

Use support on the handle because it has a gentle slope from the hinge to the middle. Print it on its side. 2-3 walls. 0.2mm layer height. 

The handle itself is optional as you can use the slots in the bucket to install a strap. 
Each side will need a handle loop, hinge 1 pin, and hinge 2 pin. The loop installs from the inside of the bucket, then slip over the handle and insert a pin from each side. The pins are tapered and should press together without glue. A dab of glue on the pin will fix it in place permanently. 

Paint the bucket afterwards as desired. You will need to sand the surface with 100-150 grit, then wipe clean to get the paint to stick.
