This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the wood badge in Metal Working.

For this BB, you will be making a watering can!

Here is what one might look like:

(source: Amazon)


This BB has a point range from 8 to 16 points.
 - minimum points for a water-tight and completely functional watering can
 - maximum points for highly professional and awesome work you'd find get from a craftsperson
 - work between functional and awesome will be awarded something in between

Minimum requirements:
 - must be made from metal, ideally copper or tin
 - must hold at least 3 quarts of water
 - must not leak

To document your completion of the BB, provide the photos or video (<2 min) of the following:
 - The supplies you're starting with
 - Partway through the build
 - The finished watering can
 
Paper jam tastes about as you would expect. Try some on this tiny ad:
