- How to build a beer keg that looks super cool as a prop and is even allowed as a throwing weapon at most LARP groups? And that's not all.. This cool beer barrel prop is also secretly a bag! IT HAS POCKETS! And that's great for cosplay because we all know that we mostly don't have a lot of storage spaces with our costumes...
In this video I show you how I made my own EVA foam beer keg bag prop.
I hope the techniques I show in this video will be helpful for your own projects!
No Henny's were harmed while making this video. The keg is made with soft EVA foam after all ;) A special thanks goed out to Henny who wanted to star in this video wearing his LARP garb!

Definitely going to add "Throwing Kegs into the Face" to my D&D arsenal
Hahaha yes you need it 🤣🤣
This is a cool tutorial. I couldn't help but think that I could use this to build a Donkey Kong barrel.
I love that you can also use this for larp! I'd make a great weapon for my barmaid character!
Oh yes it would be so cool for a barmaid character!!
Oh my gosh this is freaking adorable
What a great build! Functional and all that's awesome.
Love the blooper at the end! :)
Hahahaha we had so much fun with recording this 🙊🙊🤣
I shall be wearing this to the next medieval festival instead of my backpack 💪
love it! I'm making a chitty bang bang car - this will be perfect for the boat back end! Thanks for sharing!
Great work. Thank you.
Very cool!!
This is awesome
Great work.
Nice you emphasized the fumes! Your Safety First! attitude is kind of rare.
Good shaping, but there should be zero gap or ditching between the staves. That's silly cartoony. Cooper's built these to be watertight and durable. The staves were shaped to be tight and smooth at the joints.
That is really bad ass.
This is so epiic!!
Thank you!
It looks so cool! I guess I need to order more foam soon 🤔
Thank you! Ooh yes there are so many cool things you can make with foam 🤗
Awesome vid and accent lol 🤘
👏👏👏
have you not got a video of you making round viking sheild ?
This glue, what is?? Great glue!
So many helpful tips! Thank you!! I’ve been doing many things wrong 🫣
what did you use to seal the acrylic paint ? or did it not need sealing?
How many sheets of foam do I need to order to make it? Thanks for the great video! I have purchased the template.
When I was in school, one of my classmates in shop class had his long hair get caught in a drill. I made sure to tie my mullet back out of the way after seeing him get smacked in the head with the drill.
Oh definitely! Yes that's so scary if it happens. So bettet be safe than sorry.
