Greetings All!

Just got an empty 55 gal. drum from a local eatery that held vegetable
oil. I'd like to use it as a burn barrel, but the only opening is a
small hole in the top for a syphon pump of some kind.

Would appreciate some thoughts on how to cut the top off. My experience
with metal working is limited to high school shop which is longer ago
than I care to think about ;-).

Thanks in advance!

Fill it with water and put a metal cutting blade on whatever saw you
happen
to own and carve it off. The water will keep it from igniting if that is
even possible with vegetable oil...good luck....



With water int it??? It had better be a cordless saw!!!!!!!!!
