Wooden Spile: a Bored and Tapered Tap Spout

A spile is a wooden or metal peg or spout. Driven into a hole in a maple or birch, it carries the sap out into a pail; in a cask it lets gas out. Bore a hardwood dowel through its length, taper one end to fit the hole, and cut a lip to hang the pail on. The picture: a birch tap made by Henry David Thoreau from a hollow sumac stick bound with string.

Taper the end

Whittle one end to a taper over about 3 cm, ending a little smaller than your tap hole, so it drives in tight.

Spout and hook

Cut the outer end at a slant so the sap drips clear, and saw a shallow notch on top to hang a pail by its bail.
