I'm beginning a gourd canteen, got two gourds from Ebay, These.
Using the smaller of the two, pictured below with exterior dimensions of 4" tall by 6.68" diameter. After cutting the hole for the cork (the wall thickness is just under 1/4"), I can estimate the interior volume to be about 3.5" x (3.07")^2 x pi which = 104 cubic inches or 1.8 quarts (1.7L)
