Yep. Just wish I could find a source of cheap, small water-tight  
wooden barrels. I may have to settle for creating a look-alike barrel  
based around a modern, round plastic water barrel. I bought a book on  
coopering hoping I could make a true barrel, but coopering is a LOT  
more complicated than it at first might seem, with the staves needing  
to be split radially from a log rather than saw cut and having to be  
carved to curve in three different directions *and* to fit together  
without gaps. Anybody ever tried coopering?

It sure would be nice to not see any plastic tubs and barrels in  
camp, though.
