After many hours of thought and deliberation, I decided to buy a new crumb bucket and retire the one that has been with me for 40 years. I did not come to this decision lightly. I was concerned that the quality would not be the same as my old one. I can now say that impossibly, the quality is the same and maybe even a bit better. I decided to go with a colour and laser engraving, just to be a bit fancy. I am very pleased with this new crumb bucket and it will last me for the few remaining years that I am working. Thank you, L. May, for continuing to provide exceptional quality.
