UPDATE 4/26/24: Added version with groove on top for short people (PL.HNDL.SRT)
If you use 5 gallon pails often, you know that the thin plastic handle guards break off easily after repeated use. The wire part of the handle is thin and uncomfortable, especially if the pails are heavy. This is an alternate handle that clips onto the straight part of the wire handle for greater comfort. I recommend printing at 100% infill so that you don't have to worry about it breaking. I have lifted about 30lbs in a pail with this handle, so it should be strong enough for most uses. Enjoy!
