1. A compound container, comprising: a container body having first and second end walls, first and second side walls extending along a longitudinal direction of the container body between the first and second end walls, and a bottom wall closing a bottom opening defined by the first and second end walls and the first and second side walls, the bottom wall having a width defined between the first and second side walls, a first corner being formed between the first side wall and the bottom wall, and a second corner being formed between the second side wall and the bottom wall;an interior space defined by the first and second end walls, the first and second side walls and the bottom wall;an opening defined by upper edges of the first and second side walls and the first and second end walls;an elongated hand support member extending in the longitudinal direction of the container body and attached to a bottom surface of the bottom wall; andtwo opposing stands located only at the first and second end walls of the container body, respectively and not at the side walls, the two opposing stands being sized to raise the bottom wall of the container body above a support surface on which the compound container is placed, and space the bottom wall away from the support surface,wherein the hand support member is positioned generally parallel to the opening defined by the upper edge of the side, andwherein the hand support member is positioned to allow a user's hand to extend between the hand support member and the bottom surface of the bottom wall, from a side close to the first side wall across the width of the bottom wall to a side close to the second side wall, thereby allowing the user's hand to wrap around the first and second corners and hold on outer surfaces of the first and second side walls to manipulate the orientation of the compound container. 2. The compound container of claim 1, wherein the hand support member is made of an elastic material. 3. The compound container of claim 1, wherein the hand support member includes an expansion rib. 4. The compound container of claim 1, wherein each of the stands includes a tool holder configured for holding a hand tool. 5. The compound container of claim 4, wherein the tool holder has a friction holding tab, a top of the friction holding tab having a tongue extending toward the container body. 6. The compound container of claim 3, wherein the first and second end walls are positioned generally opposite to each other, and the first and second side walls are positioned generally opposite to each other. 7. The compound container of claim 6, wherein the first corner is a rounded corner; andthe second corner is an edged corner. 8. The compound container of claim 6, wherein the first corner is an edged corner; andthe second corner is an edged corner. 9. The compound container of claim 6, wherein the first corner is a rounded corner; andthe second corner is a rounded corner. 10. The compound container of claim 6, wherein at least one of the side walls has a lip extending outwardly from a top edge of the respective side wall, the lip having a scraping blade slot for receiving a scraping blade. 11. The compound container of claim 10, further comprising a removable scraping blade disposed in the scraping blade slot. 12. The compound container of claim 1, wherein when the compound container is stacked with another compound container, the bottom wall, the hand support member, and at least a portion of the side walls are received in an interior space defined by side walls and a bottom wall of a container body of the other container. 13. The compound container of claim 1, wherein the hand support member is positioned generally parallel to the bottom wall of the container body. 14. The compound container of claim 1, wherein the hand support member is secured to the bottom wall of the container body; the bottom wall of the container body being configured to meet the side walls and the end walls at edges of the bottom wall, when viewed from above the bottom wall, the hand support member does not extend outside the edges of the bottom wall. 15. The compound container of claim 1, wherein the hand support member is secured to the bottom wall by screws. 16. The compound container of claim 1, wherein the hand support member has two ends and an elongated body extending between the two ends, two curved holding members being formed at the two ends of the hand support member, respectively; when the hand support member is attached to the bottom surface of the bottom wall of the container body, each of the holding members being positioned to curved toward a respective short edge of the bottom wall of the container body. 17. A method of using a compound container of claim 1, comprising: extending a hand between the hand support member and the bottom surface of the bottom wall from a side close to the first side wall across the width of the bottom wall to a side close to the second side wall, thereby allowing the user's hand to wrap around the first and second corners; andholding on outer surfaces of the side walls to manipulate the orientation of the compound container. 18. A compound container kit, comprising: a container body having first and second end walls, first and second side walls extending along a longitudinal direction of the container body between the first and second end walls, and a bottom wall closing a bottom opening defined by the first and second end walls and the first and second side walls, the bottom wall having a width defined between the first and second side walls, a first corner being formed between the first side wall and the bottom wall, and a second corner being formed between the second side wall and the bottom wall;an interior space defined by the first and second end walls, the first and second side walls and the bottom wall;an opening defined by upper edges of the first and second side walls and the first and second end walls;an elongated hand support member having a first attachment section and a second attachment section for attaching the hand support member to a bottom surface of the bottom wall along the longitudinal direction of the container body;two opposing stands located only at the first and second end walls of the container body, respectively and not at the side walls, the two opposing stands being sized to raise the bottom wall of the container body above a support surface on which an assembled compound container is placed, and space the bottom wall away from the support surface; andinstructions for attaching the hand support member to the bottom surface of the bottom wall, allowing the hand support member to be positioned generally parallel to the opening defined by the upper edge of the side wall, andinstructions for use of the hand support member, allowing a user's hand to extend between the hand support member and the bottom surface of the bottom wall across the width of the bottom wall, from a side close to the first side wall across the width of the bottom wall to a side close to the second side wall, thereby allowing the user's hand to wrap around the first and second corners and hold on outer surfaces of the first and second side walls to manipulate the orientation of the compound container. 19. The compound container of claim 18, wherein the hand support member is made of an elastic material. 20. The compound container of claim 18, wherein the first corner is a rounded corner; andthe second corner is an edged corner.
