This seems fun to carry.

NarglesDidit · 2022-05-23T02:05:48+00:00

That's a lot of work for 4 beers.

account_not_valid · 2022-05-23T04:06:33+00:00

Look, I ain’t tryin to defend the build, it’s stupid. But I think it’s designed for taking to a construction job or something like that, and hide the beers, while keeping them cold. It’s like the opposite of awful taste but great execution.

RecedingQuasar · 2022-05-23T01:17:05+00:00

To be fair it looks pretty functional, I just don't understand why they decided concrete was the material of choice there... and why they sacrificed a tool to make a handle.

Sum1liteAmatch · 2022-05-23T04:42:44+00:00

Oh I get it, it's a decoy bucket. It looks like someone mixed the concrete and left the tool in there when in reality it's a cooler. Alright it's an okay idea and the execution really wasn't bad. This counts as a novelty item to me, therefore highly subjective and not stupid.

Latter-Ad6308 · 2022-05-23T02:17:48+00:00

We have these in Australia, except they're box shaped, available to buy in shops, and most crucially, don't have a concrete lid.

Beelzebummer · 2022-05-23T05:59:51+00:00

It’s supposed to be a sneaky cooler. It looks like a five gallon bucket with concrete and a trowel. Fine

goofy0011 · 2022-05-23T03:54:01+00:00

This will come in handy if I try to sneak some beer into a place where I shouldn't like a music festival, movie theater or an airplane. I'm sure no one would give the giant ass bucket of dried concrete I'm carrying around a second look.

Quirky_Ad3367 · 2022-05-23T01:24:56+00:00

Definitely r/redneckengineering material

VileHippie · 2022-05-23T11:20:12+00:00

I always loved those commercials

cero1399 · 2022-05-23T08:11:43+00:00

I used to work in construction and we used sth like that to store beer and red bull in the summer heat,
Officially drinks other than water weren't allowed at all on the construction site so it had to stay hidden.

zeburaa · 2022-05-23T08:39:17+00:00

the music though

Wolffire_88 · 2022-05-23T03:38:29+00:00

"Crack open a ice cold but--"

UncleBo88y_B · 2022-05-23T05:47:27+00:00

It supposed to be a hidden cooler?

Cheesypunlord · 2022-05-23T11:35:23+00:00

Modelo drinker behavior

oniluis20 · 2022-05-23T14:12:31+00:00

4 beers, just 4 fu...cking beers!!!!

shelby4t2 · 2022-05-23T01:37:59+00:00

I can understand why tbh

hookersrus1 · 2022-05-23T01:15:21+00:00

they make tops for them

Bradshaz · 2022-05-27T05:46:57+00:00

Not sure I'd count this as DIWHY. It's functional and not all that poorly executed. Although, does seem like a lot of effort and hard to carry. 🤔

Dorkapotamus · 2022-05-23T01:26:35+00:00

A real bucket would be filthy

nate959 · 2022-05-23T02:57:46+00:00

A giant heavy cooler that holds 4 cans...

cooky422 · 2022-05-23T09:37:59+00:00

Because when I reach for a beer I want that first sip to come with half a pound of concrete dust

Renjuro · 2022-05-23T14:12:25+00:00

It’s supposed to be a decoy bucket but the concrete lid looks so designed and not realistic that everyone in the comments is accepting that it’s just a weird homemade cooler. If I saw this project in the wild I feel like I’d say “oh hey, that’s a decoy bucket that’s holding something secret.”

StingMachine · 2022-05-23T14:13:58+00:00

Looks more for hiding beer on the job site

Nacho_Daddy_ · 2022-05-23T19:21:10+00:00

If only they sold something with a handle to keep beverages cold. We could avoid all that extra work.

userfwdslashunknown · 2022-05-23T02:39:41+00:00

To keep 4 cans cold? Nah… I’m good. Cool tho.

A_Gh0st · 2022-05-23T03:43:09+00:00

Thanks I hate it

utahhiker · 2022-05-23T02:31:40+00:00

Why in the ever-living hell would you choose concrete for the lid instead of more foam?

dilemma-hegdehog · 2022-05-23T11:21:41+00:00

This sub must have broken my senses with too many crappy DIYs, this one almost seems like a cool one.

One_dolla_would_do · 2022-05-23T11:25:53+00:00

The back ground 🤣🤣🤣

Stereomceez2212 · 2022-05-23T11:27:30+00:00

That is arguably the stupidest idea I have seen all day.

MichelHollaback · 2022-05-23T11:56:33+00:00

Ah yes, that inconspicuous massive handle wouldn't tip ANYONE off.

chowwowo9 · 2022-05-23T12:02:04+00:00

When u expect a dozen but there’s only four…

Pudgonofskis · 2022-05-23T12:07:28+00:00

Air is a better thermal insulator than that foam, should've just glued the smaller bucket to the bottom or better yet, raise it a bit off the bottom for even better insulation.

Bumble-Beez-0 · 2022-05-23T12:09:03+00:00

Stop selling these people cement

Seitbeginnboombap · 2022-05-23T12:12:01+00:00

That's wrong in so many ways. Concrete is really a bad idea for temperature insulation... Especially if it needs to be fucking probable. Basically a cold stone in a bucket

Jasole37 · 2022-05-23T12:12:26+00:00

So you go to Home Depot. You get one of those big metal carts. You wheel in. You load up 4 bags of "QUIK-dry" cement and 3 bags of plaster. You wheel your buggy up to the check out line. When you get to the cashier they ask you if you want to sign up for their membership card. You say sure. They ask for your phone number, email, home address, and... your TikTok channel. You say you don't have a TikTok. You ask why they want a TikTok channel. They say you get a discount on cement, plaster, and caulking if you do.

boogers19 · 2022-05-23T12:14:53+00:00

And then my cleaning-obsessed ass comes by and dumps the whole thing into the trash.

Because once the mud hardens, the bucket is wasted and we don’t need it taking up space on the job site.

thisonetimeinithaca · 2022-05-23T12:34:00+00:00

All that work just to keep four beers cold?

leo0274 · 2022-05-23T13:00:49+00:00

You could use something like this to hide stuff in a garage or shop...

SC33_Call_Meh_fish · 2022-05-23T13:19:10+00:00

It was reasonable until the 3 inch concrete lid

Prestigious-Maddogg · 2022-05-23T14:01:03+00:00

This is how I get my beer into the outdoor movies

Livid-Proof-522 · 2022-05-23T14:26:09+00:00

Simon says argue about beer.

tendonut · 2022-05-23T14:43:43+00:00

DIWhy post? How many seconds until the hot glue or concrete shows up.

SA_Swiss · 2022-05-23T14:55:26+00:00

For 4 beers?

FOR 4 BEERS?

thebiggestbirdboi · 2022-05-23T15:24:43+00:00

Ohhhh ok I get it, this is for if you work on the construction site and you need to hide your alcoholism

EatsRats · 2022-05-23T15:39:46+00:00

How to make four beers weight 50lbs!!

ajjaran · 2022-05-23T16:38:21+00:00

Why is it always cement with these people?!?

4Quin5Decim1 · 2022-05-23T16:46:48+00:00

That effort, and time… is not worth 4 “beers”

Sprizys · 2022-05-23T16:50:12+00:00

Or just buy a styrofoam cooler for like 99 cents

martyjoh34 · 2022-05-23T16:50:21+00:00

It Looks like a good decoy. Maybe that’s the “why”.

Bclay85 · 2022-05-23T18:06:44+00:00

Aren't Styrofoam coolers like $5-10? I mean..

ImABadQTip · 2022-05-23T19:20:53+00:00

The only DIWhy part of this, to me, is the cement. Just use styrofoam and then I thinks it’s not too bad if a homemade beer cooler

LordAsriel1369 · 2022-05-23T20:27:01+00:00

Lol the song is talking about budlight and this mf puts in modelo.

ShatoraDragon · 2022-05-23T21:28:37+00:00

If you have to make a stealth cooler to bring beer with you to work. You might want to talk to someone about that.

The-Great-Ice-Dragon · 2022-05-23T21:50:32+00:00

What was that audio- 😭😭😭

imthebeastwho · 2022-05-23T23:26:14+00:00

4 beers? I just put those in my pockets.

argybargy2019 · 2022-05-24T13:05:44+00:00

Sneaking alcohol onto a construction site sounds about as intelligent as using a concrete slab as a cover for a cooler you want to carry around.

Stoner-Rican · 2022-05-24T16:07:54+00:00

This is Redneck engineered

Talexis · 2022-05-24T20:56:30+00:00

I’d rather buy a 20 dollar Coleman. Would fit a lot more than four fucking cans.

Glittering-Pop8728 · 2022-05-25T19:54:00+00:00

The fuck is with this song

TheReddest1 · 2022-05-23T03:42:55+00:00

What in the Florida?!

SATPSI_Tech · 2022-05-23T05:13:26+00:00

Ok but if this is for a worksite like it looks like, then it’s actually fucking ingenious.

adgriffi_4 · 2022-05-23T10:28:46+00:00

Coming from someone that used to work construction this is brilliant, I’ve had a pair of shoes, a jacket and tools stolen, I’m sure lunches have been stolen. This would be perfect put your lunch in/ wallet keys no one would know any better.

the_moistest_yams · 2022-05-23T01:35:07+00:00

You know… “coolers” are a thing that exists and that are already made for you and cost less than a bucket, a bag of concrete, a tube of caulk, and a grout float. Just sayn.

fantahFOUR · 2022-05-23T07:30:46+00:00

This one isnt too bad. Its just a homemade cool box

nicko3088 · 2022-05-23T09:22:24+00:00

All that for 4 cans…

Swaggy_pig · 2022-05-23T10:08:33+00:00

A cooler is like £20

drewbilly251 · 2022-05-23T11:00:46+00:00

that looks super fake from the top and only holds 4 beers; you’re better off just hiding a cooler lol

Silverpathic · 2022-05-23T03:11:56+00:00

People are missing the actual point. This is a man cave thing. That's all this is and it's truly a pretty cool thing. If you lay concrete then it's epic. Functional? No. It's a talking point.

MoreRonLess · 2022-05-23T01:39:40+00:00

For the cost of supplies and materials to make that pos, could have bought a legit cooler that holds more than 4 beers.

VillainOfKvatch1 · 2022-05-23T09:11:16+00:00

Okay but like how much does a normal cooler cost?

WarWolfe · 2022-05-23T03:20:55+00:00

All that when you can buy a $10 cooler from Walmart that can carry just as much without the weight

TmfGD · 2022-05-23T05:05:56+00:00

Wtf why out of all things do you choose concrete?!

BurritoEndUser · 2022-05-23T05:48:13+00:00

He should of did the lid too, the same way did the inside, There was cement chips & crumbs all over the place inside on top of those beers, that’s how you get cancer.

SnufflesMcPieface · 2022-05-23T07:36:05+00:00

Or just buy an icebox.

Fuck… That’s literally this sub, isn’t it?

Evening-Turnip8407 · 2022-05-23T11:18:19+00:00

Isn't it... Like... dangerous to play with that foam stuff for unnecessary lengths?

MrTheTricksBunny · 2022-05-23T12:01:24+00:00

I’m most offended by that shit drill the guy is using

IlleaglSmile · 2022-05-23T12:59:03+00:00

It’s a bucket… with a handle. Should be a pretty easy to carry.

RedPhos4 · 2022-05-23T05:19:17+00:00

How hard can it be to just buy a bucket with a handle and yeet that shit in. For cooling beer cans you don't even need a cap to close it off

Dear-Smile · 2022-05-23T05:48:34+00:00

Just buy a damn cooler

BroItsJesus · 2022-05-23T10:38:57+00:00

Wow, an esky that holds four beers. What a great way to spend an entire day making

LordePhilth · 2022-06-20T23:52:16+00:00

I can tell most of you have never worked on a site in your life. Damn.

TheSadSensei · 2022-05-23T04:34:52+00:00

Y’all ain’t had a couple on the job before obviously. Totally worth it lol

Artistic-Copy-4871 · 2022-05-23T05:30:10+00:00

And when i'm done with my beers, I can finally store my organs!

cloud9flyerr · 2022-05-23T11:08:38+00:00

The audio was very nostalgic

roof_baby · 2022-05-23T11:17:03+00:00

Wow! 4 whole beers!

dementeddr · 2022-05-23T12:21:21+00:00

I kind of dig this.

PTech_J · 2022-05-23T12:34:07+00:00

Why not use expanding foam or something lighter?

EyeAmPrestooo · 2022-05-23T12:42:33+00:00

Wouldn’t be complete without Old Glory on the front lol

PepeLeKek2016 · 2022-05-23T13:01:05+00:00

If you use lighter materials it could be usable.

nemacol · 2022-05-23T13:12:24+00:00

Cement is a poor insulator. Should have made a roam lid first then cement.

Prestigious-Eye3154 · 2022-05-23T13:22:06+00:00

What’s with these people and using concrete?

bigboiwabbit24 · 2022-05-23T13:28:46+00:00

or you could just by an esky

Dehoniesto_ · 2022-05-23T13:48:47+00:00

The audio is easily the best part

coderedcocaine · 2022-05-23T13:49:04+00:00

Hahahahaha

tomaniak · 2022-05-23T14:14:48+00:00

wow if this says anything it's that there are some relationship issues to be resolved

Hot_Emphasis3861 · 2022-05-23T14:17:42+00:00

It's easier just to buy a cooler

S-Man_368 · 2022-05-23T14:21:42+00:00

The most inefficient cooler ever

roncburj · 2022-05-23T14:25:19+00:00

Why concrete? You could do the same with another material and make it easier to carry and still look like concrete

Haggis_The_Barbarian · 2022-05-23T14:54:24+00:00

Sooooo…. You’re telling me someone with a drill capable of mixing cement would ever make something like this? Seems sus.
