I had access to the tools I'd have needed, heck I could have even cast one with no seams to leak. Be more useful than the things I did end up making.

I saw a decent looking 'beehive' one, but the second site I hit looking at it had a review that suggested it was a piece of crap as well, and had actually rusted. (And it was advertised as 'all copper'. Copper doesn't rust, so somebody was lying.)
