Why do models have buckets? what are they for? what were they used for in real life?

Where do I begin? A bucket is a true multi-tool, when your stuck in the Tank operationally without a chance of getting out for days then you can P*** in it or S*** in it,
If you need water for the crew or the engine you can scoop it up from the nearest watercourse,
You can peel and wash potatoes in it, you can wash your clothes in it, you can put paint in it before with the aid of rags and brushes you apply "camo" to the Tank.
A bucket is to be found in a current tank just as in the last unpleasantness simply because it is irreplaceable.

You know Muscles ....there was a discussion awhile ago...BUCKETS...were the foundation ...it's a fun topic...several joined in
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=13509&hilit=BUCKET
Now ...for a little FYI....Since you now have two Tigers.....you absolutely HAVE....to have a BUCKET
Just follow the advice given by a shoe company....Don't ask why...JUST DO IT
It's kind of a tradition

Where's the best place to get the best realistic looking bucket for my Tiger?
Some metal buckets I've seen are too thick they are just not realistic!
