I've been given a 55 gallon drum that contained some sort of syrup used
in the manufacture of sweeties (confectionery). How best to remove the
top, to make an incinerator? I have neither angle grinder nor air
chisel, which seem to be popular choices.

Ideas? Thanks.


The other DIY favourite, the pressure washer ?. If you've got one with
a sand blasting attachment, it might work, albeit slowly. However it
will probably be quicker (and cheaper ?) to buy (or hire) an angle
grinder and cutting disc.
