I had an idea a few months to convert a wine barrel for home theatre and hombrew purposes. Its on three castors and is ideal for outdoor cinema activities. We watched the snapper on it the other night, what a blast from the past. If you fancy doing this a few obstacles are the fact that there is not a single adhesive element in cooperage so be sure to reinforce the entire thing from the inside before cutting. There can be up to 5 litres of wine soaked into the wood so either sand it back (loose structural support) or just seal it with varnish or a paint like I did. Also, make sure your projector is well ventitd as the hot air can split the wood and in extreme circumstances cause the whole thint go up in flames.
