Hi John,

Everyone else has the right idea, I would try tapping the hoops down first and see if that does the trick, if that doesn't work try pounding a thin cedar wedge in between the staves. If it's a visible worm hole or if you decide to disassemble the barrel, an oak spile (tapped into the drilled out worm hole) will work wonders. A spile is basically a glorified fat tooth pick. One other idea if you disassemble the barrel is to put flagging (AKA: cat-tails, bull rushes) in between the staves, they swell up tremendously and should work great.

Hi Folks,

As much as I wouldn't mind a trip there I am not stuck in Scotland nor am I in need of 1500pounds to get home!!!--my email blackswancooperage@gmail.com has been spammed! I apologize for the message, it has caused major headaches for me today! I don't think that it will have any effect to the ADI resource list, but if you happen to use gmail, there has been a fake "gmail support" email going around that I think was the downfall of my own gmail account.

My new email is heidi@blackswanbarrels.com or you can reach me @320-266-5981

I apologize again for the wacky email!
