What an outstanding video. Not a single word spoken in the entire 20 minutes, like a masterpiece from the silent film era. No call to "like or subscribe", no four minute explanation that he's about to do the thing you knowingly searched for. He could be a mute for all I know, yet it doesn't matter. I wish this man could make every DIY video I ever needed from now until the end of days. A man and his barrel with a costarring cast of tools. He plays the role of cooper masterfully, but his true master craft is filmmaking.
Good morning everybody! Another video on the channel "TM ZHENATAN Woodworking"... How to make an oak barrel for whiskey from a log with your own hands... Friends! I wish you good health and a peaceful sky above your head. Like and 👍 subscribe to our channel!!! Happy viewing!!!
Thank you!!! I am very glad that you liked the video... Try it. This is a very interesting activity... If you have any questions, I will always help with advice...
Wow! Great video, I have some oak wood I had milled from my front lawn, it’s gonna be tough but I will be attempting to make an aging barrel for bourbon soon, cheers.
would love to see a drawing (plans) for the two or three jigs used to taper and cut the side angles for the staves. Excellent craftsman at work utilizing available resources with pride of workmanship. "Work is love made visible" K. Gibran

I am putting in a small experimental craft distillery I really wish I could purchase some of these barrels from you😊 it would be nice to have some 15 gallon barrels that were home crafted.. so that I could age my own wildflower honey in them before putting whiskey into
One of the most interesting videos I have seen in awhile!! Very good. Art from Ohio I sincerely hope all is well with you in your war torn country - much love from America. I am honored to be a subscriber of your channel.

Das größte jemals gefertigte Holzfass stand im Weinkeller der Festung Königstein. Das Fass von König August (sein Spitzname war August der Starke) hatte eine Höhe von 10,5 Meter und war 15 Meter lang. Es hatte ein Fassungsvermögen von 238600 Litern. In english: the biggest ever made wooden barrel was standing in the wine cellar of the Königstein (Kingstone) Fortress. The barrel of King August (his nickname was August the Strong) was 10.5 meters in Height and 15 meters in Lenght. The capacity was 238.600 liters or 59650 gallons.
Vielen Dank für diese nützlichen Informationen!!! Aber soweit ich weiß, wurde dieses Fass angesichts der Menge an Wein, die damals in dieser Region produziert wurde, aufgrund seines großen Fassungsvermögens nie mit Wein gefüllt.
To drill the cork hole I use a hole saw... After drilling the hole, the round piece of wood stays inside the core bit and sawdust getting into the barrel is minimized...
Before they fill barrel with whiskey they burn barrels inside and add several pounds of maple charcoals to it, a few pieces of sawdust from a oak board will not contaminate anything
As cool as it would be to follow your video, I realized one problem on my end. Your hands are much more steady than mine, I wouldn't get a good final product if I made one.
Loved the video. Trully I did but could you add some text about tooling, process or where did you get or how yo make the jig for the planks (staves?). I'd love to attempt this type of project. The skills alone would be nice to know.
Thank you so much!!! I am very glad that you liked my work... To drill the filler hole, I use a core drill, inside which remains a cut round piece of the barrel, and all the small chips remain outside the barrel. Thus, the ingress of sawdust into the barrel is minimized ...
Very beautiful. I would like to see that template/gig you used to router the angles on the staves, do you have a video showing this tool up close? Thank you for a truly wonderful video.
I know that hoopers used to heat the steel hoops before putting them on wagon wheels so they would tighten to the wheel as they cooled. I guess I always thought that was how it was done for barrels too. This was a great video. What is the taper angle of the staves?
Very nice look at what it takes to make a barrel. I especially like the trick with the spanner, using 6 radii to determine the circumference. Are you using stainless steel pins to hold the lid together?
Excuse me, I have a question, I heard that before oak wood is used to produce barrels, they put it in water for a while to remove the wood poison! Is such a thing true??
No, it’s not true... Oak blanks must dry in the open air for several years. Then they are used to make barrels. And only then do they fill the barrels with cold water for 7-14 days, periodically changing the water in the barrel to remove excess bitterness (tannins) from the oak...
Thanks!!! I am very glad that you liked my work... I am a self-taught cooper... I started making my first barrel in January 2019... It was quite difficult to understand and learn all the secrets of cooperage. But I patiently read old books, watched films and tried to make barrels... I took some of the information from books, some from videos on the Internet, and invented a lot of devices, machines and methods of work myself. A year later, I already made my barrels quite quickly and with high quality ... Well, how I make barrels for whiskey and wine now, you saw in my video ... Thank you for watching!!!

Am i right in thinking that his router bit in the table is set at the angle which both cuts out the stave template and bevels at the right angle all at thr same time?
That's right. The cutter is set at the desired angle. With its help, I simultaneously give the workpiece the required shape and process the side edge of the barrel staves at the desired angle... Watch this video. It clearly shows these points: th-cam.com/video/qeHGh-Y8tgo/w-d-xo.html
@@tmzhenatanwoodworking7252 thank you. How have you set your router up? We struggle here in the UK getting tilting router tables. I take it your table shown on your templates video is the actual temple size and not the finished/routered template?
I disagree with most comments here. For a video labeled "DIY - How To" thos is a poor video and waste of time for the viewer. No complaints about watching a craftsman at work but without naration this is NOT a "how to" video.
Consistently Pray for forgiveness, guidance in a good (positive) direction, and for help against evil. Pray to be saved from hell (whatever that may be). Pray for your friends and your family too, it only takes a minute or so/less at a time to pray. Do it and your life will slowly get better, or maybe quickly. It probably just depends on you and the kind of person you are/have been. Don't wait until its too late and you have to suffer the consequences of built up bad karma from immoral acts/unrepented sins. Maybe together we can help make the world a better place by changing ourselves for the better, and changing things around us for the better. And addressing/thanking the CREATOR, LORD GOD at the beginning and end of your prayers would be a good idea 😊 Or just be my friend if you don't want to say the prayer 😄 I'm trying to help you get right with the LORD🙏 Amen. You should prostrate yourself if you don't want to do spoken prayer, or do both☺ Please worship the LORD GOD and not any idol. 🙏

I never thought I’d see an electric chainsaw smaller than mine. I feel for ya brother.
I already have a slightly larger electric saw, brother...
I use a home made radius jig. You can mill different widths of staves. I use jigs for 1ltr right through to 500ltr.
