Wine Barrel Speaker

By Andrew Gregory. Posted

When he came across an empty wine barrel in his late grandfather’s house, Philipp knew it was ripe for a project. He removed the rings, sanded the wood, and finished it with linseed oil before putting it back together again. Oh, and he also installed a Bluetooth speaker unit, cutting an extra hole in the base for the speaker.

We like the simplicity of this project. The electronics may be ‘off the shelf’, but it’s a unique object that looks great and does a job.

If you want to have a go, the process is shown here.
