I second the idea, I would probobly want one of these in black no
questions asked!

Lets flesh this idea out a bit and come up with a sutable contents list
for one of these buckets...
Given only parts still being made (so that rules out the old style
toothed parts for example), lets come up with a good technic parts
bucket that includes a good mix of axles, beams, plates, gears,
connectors, wheels, steering parts, rotors & propellors & other parts
that would be a good set in its own right and that will go well other
technic sets. Such a bucket should have a good selection of parts, such
that it will be usable as a set in its own right.

If you dont have any technic, it would be a good way to get into the
theme without getting lots of useless parts (or limited use parts) such
as decorative panels, studless beams and so on.
If you already have technic, it would be a good way to get more of the
parts everyone needs

Technic in tubs or technic in bulk. Great idea, and yes limited to currently in production parts! But I would definitely want to see the studless beams, especially now they have started appearing in different lengths. I think describing them as (...)

(...) I have wished for something like this for a long time as well: it would be really cool to have a separate tub for each colour of technic elements! The vast majority of pieces should be mainly beams, (without overly many small ones) and technic (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.technic)

THis post started life as a comment on Technic beam colors but I think it's time to bring up one of my pet concepts - one which has proven itself VERY useful in teaching - color coded sets. In teaching classes involving Legos I've found that life is (...) (23 years ago, 12-Oct-01, to lugnet.dear-lego) !
