Far canal :scared-eek: hmm ok bit on the steepish side

[JayD]

jeez you could buy some nice barells for that price, I mean who is going to pick it up with out doing the hard yards?

[res]

1200 bucks! That sucks balls :angry-banghead: I was already dreaming of walking away with a nice barrel and a boot load of oak off cuts ~x( Dam tease. :crying-blue:

[markus]

I was very interested until I seen the price. Far cough.
I could get three 50l ones from roll out the barrel for that price.

I spose we need to invest in these sort of things to prevent them going under, always prefer to support an aussie doing there a to a top notch job than it going offshore and for cheaper than an aussie can build it. One day we'll all regret cheaper prices offshore when we all don't have jobs :scared-eek: long live aussie workmanship

4 ppl at 1200 smakaroos thats $4800 bucks bud that's 600 bucks an hr kinda takes the underdog feel away from it a bit now don't it ;-) . Want to support an aussie cooper buy an aussie barrel and probably pay around $40 an hr for labour :handgestures-thumbupleft: if ya got the cash by all means do the craft tour but I think its hefty price for one days education others may and obviously do not think so

It DOES include 10L of Tawny to fill your barrel at the end of the day.

...Probably marketing to the wrong crowd here.
