beer keg


To make a keg for drinks you will need:
• empty beer can;
• newspaper tubes - 52 pieces;
• PVA construction glue;
• scissors;
• stationery knife;
• sewing threads;
• cardboard circle;
• COSMOFEN glue.

The neck of a beer can is cut off and a newspaper tube is glued along the edge of the cut using COSMOFEN glue. The central part of the jar is coated with PVA glue and wrapped in several layers with soft tubes in any order to create a thickening. The top of the winding is thickly coated with glue and allowed to dry.

The walls of the future barrel are created in several stages. First, apply glue to a small area of ​​the wall and place the tubes on it in dense rows. Slightly retreating from the edges of the barrel, the tubes are tied with strong threads on both sides. Allow the structures to dry a little and then lay the tubes further. When the entire surface of the jar is covered, it is coated with glue and dried again.

Having stepped back from the edges of the barrel before rewinding the structure with threads, coat this area with PVA glue and apply two rows of tubes, closing the fastening. Once again, the entire product is covered with glue and dried.

A circle equal to the diameter of the bottom is cut out of a piece of cardboard and glued to it using COSMOFEN universal glue.
The finished product is coated with wood stain to match the color of rosewood. In the second stage, the barrel is coated with colorless varnish - acrylic-based impregnation. Now this barrel is not afraid of dampness and can serve as a container for drinks.
