Water, or rum, should be carried by all, but in what? Thus I made these when I was bored: The first is a wooden canteen I made, large and heavy, so I covered the smaller one in wax for a more portable version. These two I made later, the first is a guord canteen win a net carry bag. The second was of leather. I cut two pieces of leather, sewed them together, soaked them for a few days to soften the leather, then packed the thing with pinto beans to stretch it to the desired shape. Then I sealed the bota inside and out with beeswax.
