I'm 77 and before I die I'm determined to make at least one barrel and one wagon wheel.

Wow! You are so entertaining . This is one of my favorite videos. I'm 72, live in KY, and I'm learning how to build barrels. Thanks for sharing.

WOW!!!!! What an amazing History & Tutorial on Barrel Making. I was asked to make a barrel and being a retired machinist, I knew the staves taper at the ends. I didn't know how to decide how much to taper the staves. I knew how to divide a circle into sections, but the simple knowledge to divide by 2 gives the angle for each side of the staves. I'm not trying to make a wet barrel, just something that looks like that type of barrel. This video has been a great help to me. Even still; it's not an easy thing to make. The barrel bands must be cone shaped; it's not just a straight strip of metal, and that's another challenge in it self.

While traveling back to my base around lager lechfeld in Germany, had lunch in a wine barrel turned into a cafe on Rhine river.

There is a non-profit organization outside of Kalamazoo, MI that teaches many early trades. Tillers International offers classes in coopering ( you make a pin, which is 4 1/5 gallons, using traditional hand tools), blacksmithing, timber framing, plowing a field with oxen and many more. The coopering class is 5 days long and is well worth the price of admission, including travel expenses.
