Cooperage v1.3 Fake Water Barrel

Finished making the fake water barrel. I really don’t think I will ever make this again. It looks great, but is a whole lot of work for the finished product. I would be willing to make one were there are no bevel cuts, It would still look cool, just not all that barrel like.

Attached the small ends and added a second band near each edge. It really helped with the ends fitting well.
