My first drum. I cut the lip off to try to fit a Kettle top. Well the cut was a little off, the drum and the kettle lid are a little out of round, and have been since the start. Trying to get it right has been nothing but chasing my tail, and several attempts to get it right have proved fruitless.
I put on the lid one time and it have a nice seal. Next time, it has a little leak and it spikes. Next time it gets a perfect seal and chokes.
I have sanded the top of the lid down to the point that the first "rib" of the drum is coming into play and the top will no longer fit if I sand any more.
So I am going to remove the guts and move on to another. I think the drum "knows", its sulking.
Any ideas before I do the deed?
