I LOVE those buckets. The ladies can keep their baskets, we men have our buckets....lol

i'm 16 and I watch a majority of your vids, just thought i'd let you know that your vids appeal to the younger crowd too. (been tinkering with wood and tools scince age 10, cabinetry FTW!)

PHEW! That is a LONG winded way to calculate your angles! Decide how many staves you want, let's say 32. There are 360 degrees in a circle. Divide 360 by 32 = 11.25, divide by 2, (because there's an angle on both edges) = hey presto 5.6 degrees. The WIDTH of the staves will determine your circumference. Let's say 2" 32 x 2 = 64. Diameter is 64 divided by pye = 64/3.14 = 20" diameter bucket. (Near enough for a wooden bucket!)

Thanks very much for the video. i'm looking into making a couple of barrels for my home made wine and whiskey, so am looking to get some nice seasoned oak for the job.

it sounded like you said sec or sextagon for a six sided shape? perhaps my poor hearing from not wearing ear protection in my workshop caught it wrong but I thought they were Hexagons ;)

Keep up the great work, i'll be watching more of your vids and will be subscribing :)

ok, for one... this is a GREAT instructional video. I hope you are in the teaching business because the way you explain stuff is just awsome. Everyone can understand this.

Second, I'm using this to make wooden tankards. Kinda like a bucket, but "in reverse". Has a wider bottom and narrower top, though the idea is thesame. Thanks man, this helped me a lot. Nice tablesaw btw ;-)
