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)
