I need a somewhat durable plastic bucket equipped with gaskets. The bucket is intended for liquid storage. It will be an oval shaped bucket. I need the end of one side of the bucket to snap on and off. If you were to remove the end that snaps off. Then the remaining larger side of the bucket, will have a continuous gasket. This gasket will go along the top rim of the bucket and continue down the now open face of the bucket. If you were to snap the removed end of the bucket back into place, this gasket will seal the two pieces together, and the bucket will be able to hold Water. The smaller piece that is removable will not need any gaskets. The black will be approximately 11 inches by 6 inches wide and approximately 4 inches tall Requirements: - Gaskets should be securely mounted to prevent leaks Ideal skills and experience: - Experience with plastic fabrication - Knowledge of gasket installation - Attention to detail to ensure a leak-proof design Please provide samples of previous similar work.

Hello, I’m a Mechanical/Product Design Engineer with 5+ years of experience in plastic product design, mechanical mechanisms, injection-molding DFM, sealing systems, and prototype development. Your oval liquid-storage bucket is a good fit for my experience. I can develop the two-piece design with a removable end section and a continuous gasket system designed to provide reliable water sealing. I can specifically work on: - Oval bucket and removable end-cap geometry - Snap-fit/locking mechanism for repeated assembly - Continuous gasket groove following the top rim and open end - Secure gasket retention to prevent displacement during assembly - Controlled gasket compression for leak prevention - Compatibility with injection molding or plastic fabrication - Wall thickness, ribs, radii, and reinforcement - Ease of assembly/disassembly - Water-tightness and tolerance considerations - Production-ready SolidWorks CAD and STEP/STL files - Prototype-ready design and manufacturing drawings For the gasket, I would evaluate a captured compression seal/O-ring-style profile rather than relying on adhesive retention alone. A properly constrained gasket groove can prevent the seal from shifting while the snap connection provides the required compression. Similar snap-container designs use grooves and flexible seals specifically to control seal position and improve leak resistance. Best regards,
