Abstract

A container assembly comprises a first member defining an interior containment space and having an access opening thereto, a second member dimensioned to encompass said first member, and a third member that interconnects said first member and said second member. The first and third members are connected along a first axis such that the first member is rotatable about the first axis relative to the third member. The second and third members are connected along a second axis such that the third member is rotatable about the second axis relative to the second member. The first axis is generally orthogonal to the second axis.
