Ugly Drum Motherload...

We use Trim in our shop, one of the labels states not to reuse the container. I know that's the lawyer keeping the law suits down however.....

If any of my Socal brethern are in need of drums I sell a water soluable oil (mineral oil based) product called Blaser Swisslube and have drums all the time that I can give away. It is much cleaner than the other coolants out there and the leftover residue is minimal(see attached MSDS). We actually cut them in half and toss them in the dumpster when we get over loaded which is usually once a month. Also I know CountryHB found a place in El Monte that sells clean ones as well.

They look like this:

I told you about them when you were about to do the build but you mentioned you wanted clean ones. You musta been a bit :mrgreen: at the time.

Countryhb · Jul 26, 2007

Ahhh, Fark! Oh well. I'll remember this before the next one!

Thanks for all the info folks...I have decided to do a slightly modified version of Country's smoker. I like the idea of burnin' logs...and the design 'aint so bad either!!! LOL! Stand by for a million questions Country...and thanks again! :mrgreen:

JD, if you have my same addiction to tending a fire, you'll love this smoker!! I hope Weber doesn't remove you from their Christmas Card list! Fire all the questions you want...I'm so proud of building this thing (I never build anything)!

It is truly a work of art, I can vouch for it although I still haven't eaten anything food off of it it yet and Country is my immediate neighbor :roll:

Countryhb · Jul 26, 2007

You just piqued my interest. You need to start a thread and post a lot of pics of that thing.

Dont me to butt in...

Did not want to start an new thread so will side track this one!

Picked up my drum from Brother HB-BBQ yesterday. Went by Norcorednecks place on the way back from San Diego to get the lids cut off.

Scored some parts from Pat to do the lid.

Now the hard part begins, to try and out do all the good looking drums on this site! :wink:

Remember kids large cans have sharp edges too!
