    The fact that you ended up with a full stave at the end accidently, is one of the most Jimmy things that I've ever seen

  • @WildmanTech
    @WildmanTech 2 месяца назад +19

    There's a formula for the bevels. Take the number of staves and divide by 180 and that will give you the bevel angle. Good work!

    Jimmy I was an engineer for a red wood water tank company and the angled sides was very hard to get right so was the an oval double headed wine aging tank. We also did cooling towers, wine tanks and hot tubs. Retired now. If you want to try a tank the hoop lug are at Mc master Carr. Before my time we had built and installed a120” Dia. water aqueduct for a dam.

    • @warlockcommandcenter
      @warlockcommandcenter 2 месяца назад +4

      Jimmy your instinctive engineering hit on a lot of the tricks we used to to assemble the hot tubs on note on the hoops to form a solid water tight joint the stave to bottom fit, the lowest hoop needs to rest on top of the chime joint (the bevel joint you cut in to the bottom edge). Well done Jimmy.

    The "Cooper" (barrel maker) was such a necessary member of a crew during the Age of Sail, they were often impressed in to service with crews along with the Surgeon.
    Your problem-solving in your projects is an inspiration.

    Kind of emotional to see you making this wooden tub, I used to help my father building this kind of wooden tubs, but bigger. We never used glue or epoxy and imagine that you need to make a progressive bevel when you work with longer planks. My dad was the master. To find the proper angle for your bevels you need to make a tool using the diameter and the radius of the tub, you know, the angle of the bevels must converge in the center of the tub from top to bottom, hope you understand... Here in Transilvania were i live we use this big wooden tubs for fermenting plumes in the process of making palinca :)

    The way they make barrels is to heat the metal bands before they drive them in place so that when the band cools it shrinks and locks the staves in place. This is like how you heat the metal tyre for a wooden wheel.

    Hi Jimmy. Nice job building the wooden tub! You said that you weren't necessarily building it to be watertight, but it looks like it is, from the video with your turkeys. It is beautiful and I'll bet it was a pretty challenging project to make. I would think that getting the angles right from board to board was tricky.

  • @geemac7267
    @geemac7267 2 месяца назад

    I think part of what made old barrels water proof was the water itself swelling the wood to make tighter joints. There's a small town near me that still has a wooden water tank made similar to this. When it was drained for inspection, it shrank back a bit and had everyone worried it wouldn't be water tight again. But it swelled again as it was being filled. Of course, with a vessel that large, the weight and pressure might also play a part in tightening things up.

    I can see why a “Cooper” was such a highly skilled job. Also, barrels weren’t always water tight. A “slack cooper” made barrels for dry goods like nails while the more skilled (and better paid) “tight cooper” made barrels that could hold liquids. When you were putting something as valuable as whiskey in it you wanted it made by the best.

      @@krazed0451 I didn't say the R wasn't pronounced in your accent, just that in rhotic accents (like most of North America) Rs are pronounced, fully.
      You have a good idea about how Australians pronounce the word, but that has little bearing on what others perceive to be the correct pronunciation. For example, in Toronto they usually say something more like "chur-onn-oh", but everywhere else (including in other parts of Canada) it's often pronounced like "toe-ron-toh". Both pronunciations are correct.
