I'm new to your channel and thoroughly enjoyed this. Great idea charring the inside and love the design. Definitely going to copy this one.

[@garyhead577]

It would be helpful to describe somehow ...what you use to finish and does it seal it well

[@dennispaulin9753]

Hello. Does the amount of charring you did seal the wood enough to hold a liquid?

[@patricksweeneywoodcrafts]

Hi Dennis, yes the charring seals the wood to hold liquid.

Thank you a really interesting video, what did you soak the towels in when burning the inside?

[@patricksweeneywoodcrafts]

I soaked the towels in water before applying the blow torch flame to prevent moisture escaping too fast from the barrel and possible crack the timber

[@kevindivall305]

Thanks I thought water but the bottle confused me, I have some oak blanks so will give it a try

[@patricksweeneywoodcrafts]

Lovely wee video I have made
Some nip glasses before, but that’s a nice idea with the barrel was that vinegar and wire wool that you stained the wood with at the start I look forward to turning some wee whiskey barrels 🥃🥃
Thank you for sharing
