The wooden kind

I plan to get a few. I want to do rain water collection for plant irrigation.
Also, if I can, I'd like to make one into a taiko drum.
-
I own one. Technically it is an old clothing dryer but it's wood and has iron hoops and is cylindrical.
-
How does it feel to own one?
-
-
No thanks, but I appreciate you offering to those who could be in desperate need 🤓
-
Yes, I own a full sized (200 liter / 53 gallon) ex-whiskey barrel that I repurposed into a rain water butt (shut the fuck up).
I bought it off of a local buy-and-sell website for I think €60 and bought a kit to channel rain water from my downspout into it. I then installed a brass spout on the side near the bottom as a tap. I can fill a watering can and water my raised bed plants with it even in droughts when watering plants with the hose is forbidden
-
Heh, "butt".
-
what did I just fucking say I tried to get ahead of this fuckery god DAMN you

My grandma used to have a barrel. However barrels are not my thing
-
I don't have one, I would like to have one. Are you offering?
-
Yeah, I could legit use one for sure. Using a plastic bin for chicken feed storage currently, but I'd prefer a vertical option. A good wooden barrel will last decades with no issues at all on a porch like ours. And not get thrown around when empty and a giant numpty of a rooster slams into it because he's a giant numpty that can't be bothered to watch where he's going.
Also, the giant numpty could stand on it while demanding biscuits and/or pats.
-
Sure. I'll take a buttload so I can tap those bungholes.
-
Are you threatening me?
-
With a good time
-

-
If it's within the EU and you're offering, I will come pick it up in person sometime this summer
-
Yeah, they protect the party from attacks for a bit.
-
Half barrels make nice planters.
Otherwise no.
-
Word.

-
I own 1 steel barrel and 3 plastic barrels
-
Plastic barrels? Are you dissolving bodies in acid?
-
The metal barrel might be more suited for acids depending on what metal it is. Plus bare metal is naturally anti microbial which will help avoid some possible risks with handling corpses
But I suppose if you’re going to leave the body in the it and waste the whole perfectly good barrel on a corpse, the plastic is likely a cheaper option

-
If I found a nice looking one for free I’d take it and use it as a table, I don’t think I’d pay much for one though
-
barrel ownership must be nationalised to prevent anyone avoiding their turn in it
-
Hell yeah! How else would I be able to join the elite barrel owers club?
-
I'd like one, don't really have a lot of space for it though. It's not really a high life priority for me.
-
Yes. Barrels are cool.
-
I'd like to have enough space to accommodate a barrel with ease if that counts?
-
I used to have two. A 10 liter and a 30 liter oak barrel. Keeping them clean when in use is hard. I eventually sold them.
-
They're great for making docks.
-
Also good for clothing if you wake up naked.
-
Always have an emergency barrel nearby
-
-
-
Can I use it to do a barrel roll?
-
You can and you should!
-
-
-
Yes, please and thank you
-
If it was filled with good bourbon, yes
