I'm working on a blacksmithing area, and I wanted to have a place I can throw metal items off the anvil (or forge) to cool them faster, so I don't have to run to the nearby (frozen) lake.
I want to know if I can just put water in a barrel and have the same effect. It would look nicer than having a source block in my opinion, and it might have the added benefit of not freezing in winter (like the rather harsh one I'm having now). I would just make the barrel myself and test it to find out, but I don't have the resources on hand right now and I really don't want to spend some on a barrel if it's not going to work so I'd like to know beforehand.
