This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection th-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.
Very cool in 1976-1977 I worked for "Western Wood Tank Corp / Johnson Tank and Tower" as a designer/project troubleshooter/ fab shop manager, we built wood hot tubs, water tanks and towers, cooling towers using clear all heart redwood and tidewater cypress. Pine will rot. We used dowels to form the bottom, and then cut the bottom one board at a time using a band saw. We never glued the bottom boards or the staves but on larger tanks we did use clear silicone as a lube to make setting the staves easier also for larger tanks we used long nylon belts to hold the staves in place before we set the hoops. McMaster-Carr has hoop lugs if you ever need them. FYI old liquor and wine tanks smell incredible when you make a hot tub out of them.
HATERS will say this is a timelapse but in reality this man is just on a diffrent level and just works this quickly from time to time he slows down the vid to let us catch up with his progress.
I am not a maker, I am happy to leave that passion to people such as yourself. But I am mesmerized by your videos and the absolute impeccable level of craftsmanship that you adhere to. Bravo!!
Man. .your work is impeccable...and even your film ability.. at the end with bucket hanging...using light to cast your name in shadow on the wall was genius. you have the creative and artistic ability I wish I possessed
Thank you for all of your very inspiring videos! Love your work. I'm normally more the electronics guy, but because of you I made myself a bigger workbench... Greetings from the other side of the planet (Austria, Europe).
I first started to think the process of making a bucket was long and pointless, however I watched the whole video and would love to try if I had an opportunity. Absolutely awesome and relaxing by looks of things. Spending a whole day on one bucket or even a barrel and make some nice whisky. You must be very proud Sir.
Awesome video and build. You are always inspiring me to make something! Quick question, how do you know the angle for the sides of the staves and how wide to rip them based on the circular base that you made? Also how do you know how long to make the metal hoops that go around them? Sounds like math and maybe some pi? Thanks Jimmy for taking the time to document your stuff and share it with us!
Great project as always! In watching you weld the bolts onto the rings, I wondered, given the pressure that will be exerted on the binding rings, it that will be a weak point of the entire build? Was thinking that the bolt did not have enough surface area to adequately apply enough weld to for the long haul. Just a thought...
Dude you are inspirational, I keep fantasizing doing stuff like this, but I don't have access to any workshop and I don't know how to use many of the tools. I'm gotta take some class. To be like you is my goal.
For some reason I thought you were going to end with the ice bucket challenge. Did you have to seal that bucket with something or is the pressure from the clamps enough to make it water tight?
That is one big bucket. Say Jimmy DiResta did you switch bolts part way through? The ones you were tightening around the 8:20 mark looked different than the ones in there when you welded the ends of the steel bands... were they not long enough?
Based on the height of the woodplanks on the side(seen in the video at 0:04): 18''=0,46 m ; minus the unused part in the bottom (-2''= 5 cm) that gives us a height of 16''. Then the diameter(the tricky part): well he is able hug it(seen at 11:06), and his arms are a little longer than the buckets circumference and his arms should be about his length; average length of american(he's American he uses inch, seriously) Average length of a american male is 175.9 cm (5' 9,5'') substract about 25 cm(10'') ; circumference should be about 176-26 = 150 cm; Now we know everything we need to calculate the volume of the bucket; C = circumference r = radius h = height (pi)= 3,14... C=2(pi)*r C=1,5 m r=C/(2(pi))=0,239 height: 16'' = 0,4 m Radius: 0,239 m(12'') V = volume V = (pi) r^2 * h V = 0,0718 m^3 (kubik meter) 1 kubik meter = 1000 litres V = 72 Litres (19 Gallons) The bucket can hold about 72 Litres(19 gallons) of water, If the bucket is full then it must weight at least 70kg (155 pound)... CONCLUSION: "It's a big bucket"
+d4nt3cz I didn't forget, i was just lazy xD, it was hard enough to estimate the volume of the bucket. Imagine trying to estimate the volume of the bucket. then the density of wood. Dry wood or wet wood? sort of wood? etc.
Goodly yes, I don't understand why you would use anything more advanced for this kind of calculation, well you can do a calculation of how big the error could be(very big). But I don't see the point of doing that, since I just did a fun estimate of the size of the bucket. :p
This is by far my favorite ALS ice bucket challenge video. Wait ... never mind. Very cool project, Jimmy. I liked this quite a bit. Now build me a hot tub. Pronto.
Many videos are educational but take FOR EVER to get there. These videos rock! I noted the sign on the work shop wall about commendation - wow! Thanks for sharing these high quality inspirations.
Love, love, love this video. Many times on how to videos they just want to talk. Thank you for not doing that. Now, aside from that, wow! You got skills, man! And your shop is to die for.
Very nice work and love to see the use of the what looked like old barn wood. Of course going for redwood or cedar or cypress for durability but I will bet with a little care this one will last for many years! A real inspiration and a great build!
I love watching these videos. It dawned on me watching this one that it might get pretty frustrating for Mrs. Diresta ... I imagine that whenever she wants something, he says "oh, don't go buy one, I can MAKE that!" LOL.
In the old days of sailing ships, buckets were made of cedar (to swell up and be waterproof). They were made with the bottom of larger diameter than the top to be stable in a boat deck. And they were always left with water in side to keep them swelled up.
No idea how I got here, but I couldn't stop myself from watching DiResta your videos.
I'm killing myself after reading this god forsaken comment
I was gonna put some respeck on your comment until I saw your username. Hippos generally love the water and couldn't live without it.

Thank you for the 411 !! My first time I was learning on the go !

Your sense of satisfaction when you tap on the barrel and it rings like a bell is palpable! Well done!
You're so talented. I've just spent 11 minutes watching a bucket being made and enjoyed every second.
The satisfaction I get out of DiResta videos is unexplainable. I just enjoy the speed up sounds lol!
i just started watching a video and now i cant stop watching the same guy making diy
I did the ice bucket challenge today on video, edit over weekend ill publish Monday on mu channel .. Thank You all for the love !!
Well done!
love this channel, no talk no bs, just pure awesome craftsmanship with amazing results.
i agree
Me too!!
same
The sounds in the video are really satisfying

You have inspired me greatly over the years jimmy. You are truly a master craftsman. I love just watching you work.
Thank you for all of your very inspiring videos! Love your work. I'm normally more the electronics guy, but because of you I made myself a bigger workbench... Greetings from the other side of the planet (Austria, Europe).
man you bring awesomeness to crafting.....you have raised the bar and standard for artisianship!
You have made some amazing things but the bucket is a thing of beauty. Amazing
Very very nice - Total pleasure to watch a craftsman at work
Absolutely amazing. I love watching you work. You're a true artist.

Absolutely awesome and relaxing by looks of things. Spending a whole day on one bucket or even a barrel and make some nice whisky. You must be very proud Sir.
You are amazing… I am inspired by every video of yours I see! Thanks from the UK...

Made paper cross section drawing but didn't tape it. Was boring to watch. Tx you !!
That's just awesome!
Your work never ceases to amaze me. You are truly a wizard at your craft.
Always awesome!
Do the als ice bucket challenge with it
BEAST MODE ACTIVATED! :D
Love it :)
In my other life, I am Jimmy DiResta!
Hi Jimmy. You probably have answered this a million times, but what type of welder do you use? Thanks in advance. :)
Millermatic DVI
Type is a MIG welder, model is like jimmy said above.
i just love to see you work :-) its relaxing and awesome ^_^ keep up the good work man ;-)
Great project as always! In watching you weld the bolts onto the rings, I wondered, given the pressure that will be exerted on the binding rings, it that will be a weak point of the entire build? Was thinking that the bolt did not have enough surface area to adequately apply enough weld to for the long haul. Just a thought...
Like a Boss! :D
Any chance of you producing those triangle push sticks for sale?
True talent!
Like this! Good work.
I love doing projects like these! I enjoy making my own furniture, boxes, tables, projects, ect! Too bad I'm a 13 year old girl 😂 Someday...
Dang, that shadow diresta at the end is a good touch. Awesome video
Cool build Jimmy. I noticed the blade and the chop saw were given the DiResta touch. Always look forward to your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Great build!
Lot of hard work into this but in the excellent
Creation well done
Dude you are inspirational, I keep fantasizing doing stuff like this, but I don't have access to any workshop and I don't know how to use many of the tools. I'm gotta take some class. To be like you is my goal.
Do you log how many hours you have in building stuff like this? If so how many hours did it take?
Thanks
5-6 hrs thank you
Very cool but couldn't you tighten the bolts, weld the seam and then cut off the bolts?
I would watch this man build anything!
Amazing! Like always.
For some reason I thought you were going to end with the ice bucket challenge. Did you have to seal that bucket with something or is the pressure from the clamps enough to make it water tight?
Soo much work
Jimmy being a cooper and a blacksmith, cool stuff. Great bucket, a challenge if you don't know how but it came out great looking. Thanks for sharing.
Great skills Jimmy! Fantastic craftsmanship ! Thanks for sharing.
You're a master Jimmy!
I would love to see fully coopered bucket next time, this one looks like cylindrical shape?
Thanks, I'm a big fan!
What's up with all the white stuff Diresta? No more DeWalt?
Brilliant work! What a skill set. You can also see traditional coopering if you do a search for the video "Ben's Mill"
Jimmy should have used this in an Ice Bucket challenge at the end. Great build regardless.
My channels Monday. In the can editing xo
you should head to napa they dont have enough coopers after the quake. I can see it now the DiResta logo on every barrel of wine ....
Would be perfect as an ice bucket ...
Hahaha lol
it was part of the ice bucket challenge he challenged his brother john and nephew matt, make left it out
Is there anything you can't do...? I really enjoy your channel. Thanks for sharing and providing inspiration.
waw RESPECT♥♥
I love the dual stop blocks when doing the dados, very good idea. Who knew, Jimmy could have been a cooper too!
Thank you nick !!
@Jimmy DiResta You need to put up a shop man. I'd pay good money for one of your push sticks/squares.
I'm pretty sure I know what this bucket is for...
That is one big bucket.
Say Jimmy DiResta did you switch bolts part way through? The ones you were tightening around the 8:20 mark looked different than the ones in there when you welded the ends of the steel bands... were they not long enough?
Yes exactly. Started w 3" but needed 4". Thank you!
Fantastic! I'm in awe by the amount for work and skill it takes to make this. Everything for scratch. Amazing job!
Based on the height of the woodplanks on the side(seen in the video at 0:04): 18''=0,46 m ; minus the unused part in the bottom (-2''= 5 cm) that gives us a height of 16''.
Then the diameter(the tricky part): well he is able hug it(seen at 11:06), and his arms are a little longer than the buckets circumference
and his arms should be about his length; average length of american(he's American he uses inch, seriously)
Average length of a american male is 175.9 cm (5' 9,5'') substract about 25 cm(10'') ;
circumference should be about 176-26 = 150 cm;
Now we know everything we need to calculate the volume of the bucket;
C = circumference
r = radius
h = height
(pi)= 3,14...
C=2(pi)*r
C=1,5 m
r=C/(2(pi))=0,239
height: 16'' = 0,4 m
Radius: 0,239 m(12'')
V = volume
V = (pi) r^2 * h
V = 0,0718 m^3 (kubik meter)
1 kubik meter = 1000 litres
V = 72 Litres (19 Gallons)
The bucket can hold about 72 Litres(19 gallons) of water,
If the bucket is full then it must weight at least 70kg (155 pound)...
CONCLUSION: "It's a big bucket"
+Pro96Gaming neeeeeeeeerrrrdddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
jk fam dont hit me
+Ako si Kalabaw nerd would not forget weight of the bucket itself :D so its 70kg of water plus that heavy bucket :))

Old school,there is people that still make barrels to this day.this is neat.
This is by far my favorite ALS ice bucket challenge video. Wait ... never mind.
Very cool project, Jimmy. I liked this quite a bit. Now build me a hot tub. Pronto.
Check my channel today for the bucket Ice dump!! Thank you !
jimmydiresta hey, make a wooden mug beer?
It was cool DiResta when you see DiResta change the angle of the DiResta cut. Thanks DiResta for DiResta the DiResta video. DiResta
Unbelievable! I am blown away by this...and it can hold water! Great job!
Excellent example of both Cooperage and Blacksmithing with a modern twist! Thank you
I never thought I'd be so excited about a bucket!
idk why but it made me so happy when i saw him using the mallet he made. like he's using his creation, it's so neat
Sir,you are one shell's builder. My hat off to you Sir.
Many videos are educational but take FOR EVER to get there.
These videos rock! I noted the sign on the work shop wall about commendation - wow!
Thanks for sharing these high quality inspirations.
I really enjoy your videos, Jimmy. Thanks for posting. They are all so great and fun to watch!
Love, love, love this video. Many times on how to videos they just want to talk. Thank you for not doing that. Now, aside from that, wow! You got skills, man! And your shop is to die for.
I have been watching your videos for quite some time and you always amaze me, very good workmanship thank you for sharing your talent with all of us
2 Diresta videos in one day!awesome!wish there were more!
I like DiResta very much!
He doesn't say a single word, so I can pay attention only at his hands.
My English is a little poor by hearing.
Simple and useful, big-up Jimmy, Is always a pleasure to watch your videos!
Really enjoyed this one Jimmy. Keep these type of projects coming
This guy is in love with his own last name, it is on everything!
Not every thing..Not yet. Give me time.
Jimmy DiResta I love your videos and creations Jimmy
Jimmy DiResta Need to paint it on the table saw fence still.
bigger letters i'm thinking, and a snickers carrier for Mr Spam i think he's hungry !
***** I'm sure it helps keep his tools from walking away as well.
It's 2am and I'm watching a man making a bucket. What is my life?
+Heart AG 1:59am nz I feel this video is viewed only at late hours
Same but mid night so kinda
5:07am
3:16 am
1:56 AM
Very nice work and love to see the use of the what looked like old barn wood. Of course going for redwood or cedar or cypress for durability but I will bet with a little care this one will last for many years! A real inspiration and a great build!
I could watch these videos for hours
Always incredible - love the combination of wood working and metal working. Keep up the amazing work and videos. A high light for my week. Thanks.
Nicely done! Always a joy to watch.
Diresta is king.
That shear and your self made. Banding clams are badass Jimmy D
I love watching these videos. It dawned on me watching this one that it might get pretty frustrating for Mrs. Diresta ... I imagine that whenever she wants something, he says "oh, don't go buy one, I can MAKE that!" LOL.
That was amazing to watch - and such beautiful project - wish I had the equipment to make it myself!
very cool, I was smiling all the way throughout this vid
In the old days of sailing ships, buckets were made of cedar (to swell up and be waterproof). They were made with the bottom of larger diameter than the top to be stable in a boat deck. And they were always left with water in side to keep them swelled up.
Very nice work brother. Excellent work.
NOW THAT'S A BUCKET ! Great job.
Those push sticks you're using on the table saw are great.
Huge bucket. AWESOME, DUDE!!!
That is a beautiful piece!
You Sir, are a master! Excellent work
Very dexterious job with interest and curious product of Diresta The Great. !
At first I thought: Really? A bucket? But somehow you managed to make it interesting. Great job
The nifty sounds from 6:20 to 6:27 (grinding the metal pieces) was worth the effort to get here.
