Wooden Bucket, Pine

reminds me of the buckets we used to make ice cream in (downsized version)

I love it, very authentic and nicely done.
What material did you use for the banding? I made a wheel some time ago and could not find suitable material for banding on the hub or rim ….. don’t have a metal shop.

Those are some awfully cool buckets Jack.
I favorited it and will attempt one down the road.
If it comes out half as nice as yours’, I’ll consider it a success.
Thanks for sharing.

Your donations from the proceeds are very noble as well.

Love this! Reminds me of the water tanks you see all over the rooftops in Manhattan – only just a little smaller. ;-) I bet, however, the construction if very similar!

Wow, wow I love your buckets, awesome job, they are beautiful i have been wanting to learn the craft of making bucket for a long time. I have made one just for decoration on my wishing well, however it would not hold sand with out it leaking out. I looked at your web site and i would love to take one of your classes. I need to find out how much it would cost for a plane ticket from SC to Arizona. Maybe i can swing it. Another problem i might encounter is when the doctor planing on perfoming my carpal tunnel surgery. If i can get everthing right i might take a class. If not this year maybe next.

Nice bucket. I remember my grandpa letting me pull the rope from the well, with water in a bucket.

Those buckets are the coolest thing since the other side of the pillow. I’d love to take your class. Unfortunately I live in Portland, OR. I have a good friend in Phoenix though who is a budding blacksmith. I recommended the class to him. Nice work.
