Borrow wine making equipment

I would like to try making wine. I have all the equipment I need except a larger fermenter (7.5 gal or larger) and a corker. Is there anyone who would let me borrow these two items to make a red (probably start with a Pinot Noir)?

I'll need the larger fermenter for the first fermentation. Preferably plastic that is 7.5 - 8.5 gal. I have my own 6+ gal glass fermenter for the secondary. And then when it is time to bottle, I'll need a corker. I would rather not buy these items until I'm sure I want to keep doing it.

Free bottle of the finished product when it's done to the friend that helps.

Rob,

I have an italian floor corker (similar to http://www.homebrewers.com/product/4040 ... _campaign=) that you are welcome to borrow.

I have a batch of Sav. Blanc in secondary now, but plan on trying to bag/box this batch.

thanks Xan. I'll probably take you up on it in a few months....
