Huge Demijohn

A buddy of mine gave me this awhile back. 13 gallons! Have never seen anything this big! That's a regular half gallon jar on the left.

Technically not a demijohn but a carboy. The straight sides and short neck are the form and are originally meant to be encased in a wooden crate. From the crate they were swivel tipped to dispense the contents. Clearly not meant for frequent travel! Jack

I had twoi of them that were mounted in a band of steel around the center attached to a swivel metal leg set .

That too! Also some homemade pouring designs, often to be used on end of a wagon, etc....Jack
