The Millerbees Bucket Tilter is for tilting 3.5 to 5 gallon buckets with bottom gates, to get the last few quarts of Honey or other liquid out without getting the debris floating on the top or the debris that sank to the bottom.  (Bucket and gate not included)  The bucket should not be tilted until the honey or other liquid has been emptied to just above the bottom gate.  Then the center of gravity will be low enough to tilt the bucket and get the last of the honey or other liquid out. Made in USA, made from Poplar wood grown in USA.  The piece with the radial slot is 9 ply 1/2" thick Baltic birch, so splitting or warping will not be a problem.  The 2" "T" lock knob screws into a zinc plated steel "T" nut for years of dependable service.  The bucket tilter is not painted, but may be painted.  The BTK bucket tilter kit includes all parts and hardware and screws needed (except nails).  The BTH Bucket tilter hardware includes all hardware, screw needed (except nails) and the 9 ply Baltic Birch center piece that has the radii slot.  Instructions and dimensions to cut all the other parts are included.  All the other parts are simple straight cuts that can be made on a table saw with common 3/4" lumber.
