PSA: Don't toss your mud bucket right away

I was finishing a ceiling in an old house in Portland last week, hit a lump of dried mud in the middle of a smooth pass. Took the empty bucket, sliced it into a flat scraper, and chipped the whole mess off in 2 minutes. Anyone else repurpose their buckets for quick fixes like that?

Did your buddy break a trowel doing that?

Ngl I've done the same thing with a 5 gallon bucket lid. Works perfect.
