galvie pail seat

I saw PaulMcCarthy, the wood carver, using these one year.
get a galv. or stainless pail of a hight that you are comfortable sitting on (I suspect his were straight from the shop )

cut a spare board in an oval large enough to cover the top.
board should be thick enough to be taller than the handle brackets.

cut away sections to allow for smelt stowage and for the handle brackets.

finish as you would a butcher block cutting board.
The underside (when flipped over) doubles as your cleaning station.

There is a fine line that seperates a fisherman from a fool standing in water swinging a stick.
