This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the wood badge in Dimensional Lumber Woodworking.

Carrying water in a leaky bucket is annoying.  Let's build a wooden bucket that doesn't leak!

 
 

Here's a gentleman with a cool accent showing us one way to do it:


Minimum requirements:
  - Make a wooden bucket with staves
  - No glue
  - With a handle
  - Natural groove sealer that expands with hydration (like ground flax seed from the video)
  - Metal is acceptable for the hoops
  - Homemade natural finish is allowed
  - At least 2 gallons in size

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - The lumber you're going to use for this project
  - Midway through the construction process
  - Finished bucket

Also provide video of the following (<2 min):
  - Filling the bucket with 2+ gallons of water
  - Suspending the full bucket over a few sheets of paper
  - Show how it isn't leaking at all over a 20 minute time lapse (sped up)
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://stoves2.com
