ABSTRACT:
A portable tabletop for use while mounted atop a convention bucket is disclosed. The tabletop contains integrated recess forming semi-circular projections for receiving the annular projection or lip of a conventional bucket. The recess is sufficiently deep and reinforced to securely attach the tabletop to a bucket allowing it to support multiple items. An opening in the center of the tabletop allows for the retrieval of items from, or the discarding of items into, the interior of a bucket while the tabletop is mounted in place on a bucket. Additionally, when not mounted on a bucket, the opening aids in the portability of the tabletop by allowing a person to grip the center of the device and carry it one-handed parallel to the body. The tabletop also incorporates slot shaped openings, which allow the bail of the bucket to protrude vertically through the tabletop providing for the tabletop and bucket to be easily moved as a whole while the tabletop is mounted in place. The tabletop is preferably made of a single piece of high-density polyethylene material.
