    The waterfronts in the sound between Haugesund and Karmøy is still recognizeable 53 years later. That building may still stand there today.

    When in Norway visiting family, we got to see barrels still being made like this at the Tønnegarden in Holmefjord. They also make yummy food like rauddravle. Worth a visit.

    When the machines grind to a halt, the craftsmen will reimerge. We must preserve the old ways for that day.

      You forgot to capitalize the L at the beginning of your sentence. I wasn't speaking, I was typing. I'm guessing I have a better grasp of English than you do just by look at your profile.

    how would you open it after the lids are put on? I've always wondered

    • @jamiet9554
      @jamiet9554 2 года назад

      Slackening the hoops opens the staves up enough so you can remove the end/lid.

    is Haugesund perhaps the source of the term hog's head?

    • @OlliWilkman
      @OlliWilkman 5 лет назад

      Probably not. Haugesund as a town is relatively young, though the name is older. The name, from haugr+sund, means "hill strait" (or sound). The etymology of hogshead is uncertain, but it's possibly a corruption of "ox head", since various Germanic and Scandinavian languages have a word like that.

    Can anyone explain why the staves dont fall inwards?

    • @jamiet9554
      @jamiet9554 2 года назад

      Because of the shape of the staves and the hoops holding them together in place. That's why it's important the cooper gets the right angle on the joints of the staves.
