编者按：江苏省连云港市箍桶技艺非遗传承人许继中系赣榆区赣马城里人氏，今年60岁，12岁开始从事箍桶，迄今已从事该行业40余年。他制作的一百余种纯手工木桶，从洗脚桶、煮肉桶，到餐桌桶，形态各异，古拙典雅，2014年被连云港市第五批市级非物质文化遗产项目认定为代表性传承人，也是目前连云港市唯一持此技艺的箍桶传承人。

       Editor's note: Wooden buckets are still commonly used for bathing, cooking, and washing clothes in China. However, most craftsmen making the products have gone out of business as they have already been replaced by modern production lines. Xu Jizhong, aged 60, a man in Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, is among the few coopers who still produce wooden buckets by using traditional tools and techniques. Having first started to learn the skill at the age of 12, Xu is presently the only inheritor of this traditional skill in the city. His products are stout and durable, different in shape and style, and of excellent workmanship. Moreover, the technique has been included into the municipal-level intangible cultural heritage list.
