hi Yve!
He made buckets, piggins, butter churns, that sort of thing along with his hand carved wooden spoons and bowls...no barrels.
I think somewhere back in this thread he Steve Folkers) explains the difference in his coopered items and those of a barrel cooper.

He no longer does any coopering although he is still making a few spoons and bowls.

He'll answer questions about the work here though . Thanks Judith would love to see some of his spoon making work .

On the first page of this thread, down a few posts is a good explanation of the different types of coopering.
