'''New Ruling from 1st Jan 2018'''<br>
+
No wooden buckets with visible wide iron hoops.<br>
+
These can be made ''Allowable'' by applying wooden laths, withies or a copper-alloy (''RICH'') strip over the hoops. Buckets may be wider at the top, wider at the bottom or parallel sided. Hoops from wooden laths or withies are ''Encouraged'', but thin iron bars are ''Optional''. ''RICH'' Viking or English characters may own a bucket with decorated copper-alloy hoops or metal plates.

==Authenticity Guide==
+
Buckets from our period may be either wider at the top, wider at the bottom or parallel sided. Hoops should ideally be made from wooden laths or withies but thin semi-circular or triangular section iron bar is allowable. Buckets handles may be of iron or made from an authentic cordage. <br>
+
RICH Viking or English characters may own a copper-alloy hooped or plated bucket. These buckets may have either iron or copper-alloy handles.
+
 
+
===Encouraged (All Periods)===
+
Simple wooden buckets bound with natural materials or thin iron hoops. Handles can be made of wood, rope or iron. Staves are made from oak, yew, ash or pine. Bindings of yew, ash, pine, hazel, willow, alder, fir and maple. Either as withies or laths. Base plates are constructed from planks doweled together.<br>
+
Some buckets were made from hollowed out logs. They have a separate base inserted into a notch. Usually bound in withies. Just like stave buckets, they have two extended handle-staves for attaching the handle to.

+
===Optional (All Periods)===
+
Copper-alloy bound buckets are usually of Irish manufacture and a number of them have been found in Norway. Handles can be of either iron or copper-alloy. Instead of a handle some buckets have four iron carrying rings. Some of these buckets are reinforced with thin iron hoops between the brass hoops. <br>
+
These buckets are classed as ''Restricted'' and may only be used by ''RICH'' characters.

===Unacceptable (All Periods)===
+
No wooden buckets with visible wide iron hoops. Wide metal hoops can be made allowable by being hidden under wooden laths, withies or a copper-alloy strip. Using copper-alloy would restrict the bucket to RICH characters.
