Intro: Wooden beer mug This instructable is for making a big wooden beer mug. I made it 15cm x 22cm. Maybe not so suitible for drinking beer but for decorative purpose or ,like me as a trash and beercaps bin.
Step 1: Cutting the wood For this mug i used some pallet wood i had laying around. You will need 15 sticks cut at a length of 22 cm and at an angle of 12 degrees.
Step 2: Tape it Put the sticks around something round and tape them together ,but leave one opening.

Step 3: Glueing Now take the whole thing and put it on a flat surface and put some glue between the sticks .
Step 4: Tourniqueting Now fold it together again. I used some rope and a pair of screwdrivers to tighten the sticks together. Now you can let the glue dry.

Step 5: The ear Now you can make the ear. Mine is approx. 20cm x 8cm. I did all the sanding with an angle grinder. When the glue of the mug has dried ,you can also sand this.
Step 6: Decorings To make it look better i've put some rings out of sheetmetal around them. But you could also use some rope. With the angle grinder i made some grooves and glued the rings in.

Step 7: Putting it together Now put the ear on it , I made the mistake to put the bottom in before screwing the ear on from the inside. Next glue the bottom in and do some more sanding
