I was bummed to find out that my local Harbour Freight doesn't stock drum dollies. Anyone know what other kind of business does? I'd really like to get one.

I tried burning it off with my propane weed torch, but I think my torch is defective... While i was trying to burn it off, flames started coming out the side of the torch head as much as out the front and the 'blaster' thing doesn't do anything anymore. I had enough flame to light some charcoal, but it took a lot longer.. any ideas on how to fix this torch? I knew I shoulda bought the more expensive one with the igniter.B
I saw some drums in Arkansas this weekend with resealable lid and reusable clamp $12. Held Rasberry juice guy was selling them for burn barrels.
Where in Ark?

Heavy duty good lubricant barrel not worth the risk. IMO Was down in Rogers few weeks ago for a interview with consumer labs nice town.I found a place in Hogeye, AR. Here is their ad:
METAL AND plastic 55 gallon drums for sale. Food grade. Great for food, feed or water storage. Call Hogeye 479-846-3664.
She said most of them held juices.
She also said that there were some others that I might be interested in. People use them to make wood burning heaters for shops and things. They are a little "heavier duty" but they held factory lubracants of some sort.
Does anyone know if these lubes will burn off?
I'm guessing that heavier duty would hold temps better?
PS Sounds like some of us are closer than we thought to each other!
On the "Fun Side":
Do you think those lubes are flammable? That would be neat to see anyway.
If you cut the holes with a step bit to 13/16 and clean up the cut with a rat tail file the 1/2 inch pipe nipples should thread right in.
Got my new drum yesterday ... so I'm going to begin assembling my UDS this weekend - and will admit - I'm a little confused on the whole pipe nipple thing for the air intakes! Why do you drill a 13/16 hole for a 1/2 inch pipe nipple? What am I missing and do you have any close up pics?
Thanks for the help!
Thanks for the quick reply. Which leads to another question - I assume there is some type of cap that screws to the pipe nipple to close off the pipe? And - can you get 1/2 inch pipe nipples at Lowes or Home Depot?
Brent - did you get my PM I sent you?
Thanks again!
