Hi Nella, yes, they are made by machine now a days because they can be mass
produced in a quicker time than they can be if made by hand as they were
back in the olden days.
It was very interesting to watch the Chandlers (Candle makers) Tanners
(Leather makers) and Coopers (Barrel makers) at those museums.s

Henry:

I suspect the both whisky and wine barrels are made by machine.  I would
like to see one made by hand.

Hi Nella, as for Coopers, I have just seen them in the Mystic Seaport and
Old Sturbridge Village Museums.
I also wonder if the barrels that are for wine are made by hand anymore or
by machine, I am thinking it is the latter.

chandler

What is a person called who prepares animal hides into leather?

tanner

What are persons who make wooden barrels called.

cooper
