Tuff Stuff picking tub large w/ adjustable strap

Details

Anything picked by hand goes twice as fast with two hands. Carry a pail and you are working one-handed, setting it down every few steps and then reaching back for it. Hanging the container off your shoulder solves that, and it is the difference between finishing a row and giving up halfway. The strap adjusts, which matters more than it sounds. Worn short it rides at chest height for reaching up into a tree; worn long it sits at the waist for beans, berries or eggs at ground level. It also means the same tub works for whoever happens to be picking that day rather than only fitting one person. The tub itself is moulded plastic with a smooth interior, so there is nothing to snag soft fruit and nothing that soaks up juice. It rinses out under a hose and dries quickly, and it stacks or hangs on a nail out of season. It does not have to be produce. The same setup works for anything you gather with both hands while walking: insulators off a fence line, staples, dropped fasteners, eggs from a range shelter.
