Excellent job! I'm sure your next one will be tar tight. How did you learn what the traditional method was? Via book? Or was it via stories passed down verbally?
Great video. As soon as I saw the fitting of the bottom of the barrel I thought "You want your kid in there ti hold it up". Great minds. Wasn't too sure how he'll get out after the tops been put on 😁 Would having some bands in the middle help to pull the boards together and make it water/oil proof? Would soaking the rims before steaming have made them more flexible?
Very cool, and definitely quite beautiful! If you're going to be making more, and the angles problem gets improved, I bet you can skip the upper internal ring. I remember watching an Irishman making traditional milk buckets. The bucket of course has no inner material at the top. He was a professional cooper, so I'm sure it's very hard to achieve, but your use-case of storing (presumably) rakes and shovels and such does seem more like a very tall bucket than a closed barrel. P.S. I'm in favor of you building a shave horse. I bet you'll find uses for it, and it'd be a cool video.
Great job, and it makes a person appreciate how hard barrels are to make today but especially hard in bygone days. Stay safe, be careful, take it easy and keep warm and dry.
You're a patient man, so many frustrations along the way, and luckily you've got kids for when it gets extra tricky! Great job, and a very tidy film!
Thanks for sharing. What an amazing process. Love the kids helping.
Beautiful! Such great efforts and skill.
Love those Fisker axes. Great video.
Amazing job, congrats!
Your skills are amazing 👍👍

Books, and found couple of videos too.
Beautiful. Kiitos. 👍🏻😉

Thanks! Soaking could help i guess, but I didn't find a place to do that then.

I agree. Thicker boards and perfect angle and I can skip the upper ring. Shave horse has been on the list for a long time :)

Put a wood block on your stomach to use draw knife.

Se on vissiin sitten terva poltto, tynnyri täyteen.
Ensimmäisestä kokeilusta tuli sen verran niukka saalis, että lienee parempi säilöä jotain ihan muuta 😅

Hi, here is a video that might give you some tips when making another barrel. ua-cam.com/video/jIc6dW-Tbsg/v-deo.html
