Strange Request (5+ Gallon Buckets/Tubing)

[Coco]

Kind of a strange request, but I am looking for a bunch of 5 gallon buckets for cheap, or free.

Going to try and build a manmade RC crawler obstacle with them, so the bottoms will be cut out, and only need the sides intact.

If you have anything with a bigger diameter than a 5+ gallon bucket, that would be awesome too!! I will need to make the buckets larger if I go that route (wraiths wont fit in them)

I am trying to keep it lightweight, so I can move it by hand, so if you guys have any other ideas for a bigger diameter bucket/plastic tube let me know!

Firehouse subs sells their used 5 gallon pickle buckets for $2 each.

If anyone else has any, let me know! I am not sure how many I will need or want until I get started, so the more the marrier!

For anyone curious as to what I am (attempting) here is some pics:

It will be a Matterhorn/tunnel obstacle, atleast that is the idea

Did you plant any trees or anything, and got the left over plastic thing it came in? It will work PERFECT if you have any
