I have always hated using the standard handle on 5-gallon bucket handles when carrying anything with significant weight. Not only do the small white handles dig into my hands, but I also find that they break easily and often leave me with the even more painful metal bar to grab unto.

Thus I have created this much more ergonomic handle that is larger and distributes the weight of a heavy bucket much more comfortably in your hands. (Images compare the difference between this handle, the original, and just the bar)

It simply pops on and off with a little force, making it easy to switch between buckets. There is also a small locking bar that is also included that you can print to lock the handle unto the bucket for heavier loads or to mount the handle more permanently. It can be fiction fitted into place or glued.
