today there was a plastic inside of a wine cask and i was like awsome lets pop it! so i went outside and spent ages trying to pop this thing eventually a hockey stick blew out the tap. i decided that i could use it as a bladder for a homemade camelback so i got a piece of pipe that fitted in the tap, then took out this little black rong of plastic that acts as a seal to keep the fluid from dripping out, put the bit of pipe in, put the bladder in the small front pocket of a bag (filled with water) tip- if you dont want to have to hit the thing with a hockey stick every time you want to refill it dont put the tap the whole way back in it doesnt drip water and you can get it out much easier!

Wine cask bladders have been used for bushwalkers for carrying water to their campsites for ages.
Improvisation is good, I can also say I've been soaked twice by malfunctioning commercial hydro packs..... not fun when you are skiing and it is below zero
