This handy little symmetric two-piece part will snap securely around the wire loop that most five-gallon and some smaller plastic buckets have. It replaces the cheap and easily broken plastic tube that most buckets have to save your hands. Unlike those cheap non UV-doped cylinders, my design is ergonomic, aesthetic and won't break or degrade.

It prints without supports, although I do suggest printing with a 2 layer raft (you can use my gcode if you want). PLA is fine. It's designed to fit 80mm width spans of straight wire up to 4mm in diameter. Although I've tested it on several different buckets of various sizes and it has worked on every single one so far.
