scrawled the following:

they used to make 5 gallon metal cans. Metal wire handle. 2" or so spout
with a 1' or so cap on top of that. IIRC, oil used to come in them. I need
a couple for trash oil. Any idea where to find any?

You'll probably find plenty for "just" $75 apiece at an antique shop.

Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority.
It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard
the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all
ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to
be good masters, but they mean to be masters. --Daniel Webster
