I finished this project this morning. It is a covered bucket sometimes called a firkin. The firkin body and lid are made from 120+ year old yellow pine lumber that came from an old barn on the farm I grew up on. The bands are green elm, rived from a live limb and made with locking connections on the ends to hold them in place. The firkin will hold about 1 1/2 gallons of liquid and is water tight. I aged the project to give it a "look". As always, I appreciate the opportunity to share my feeble efforts. I remain your humble servant,
