I'm gonna try the recipe, but I actually meant the second life use of the gasoline drum. Are there more guys out there that convert old stuff into 'new'.
My old barrels collected metal for recyling. Steel, aluminum and non-ferrous in seperate barrels. A couple of times a year I would make a scrap run. There wasn't one run that didn't put at least $100 in my pocket. The drive to the metal yard was done along with some bids so that I didn't take any time.
I just looked at that and remembered helping a bud put together one of those 55 gal drum kits to wood stove. I think the company is gone now but it still works and is a great lil deal.
