Water pails

[Bernie Brule]

Where can I get 1/16 and 1/32 water pails?

Hello Bernie,
I will check my stash of accessories for some 1/32 water pails. I have none in 1/16.

If you have some thin sheet plastic, you can try thermo-forming your own. Just find the right shape, hold the plastic above a candle until the plastic sheet becomes soft, then quickly (but gently) pull the softened plastic sheet over the form. Once the plastic has cooled, just trim it to shape. You can add a stretched sprue lip around the top edge for extra detail, and a thin wire handle.

Here's the one I made for my 1/25 Tamiya Tiger I:
