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.


A bolster chisel and lots of elbow grease? ISTR doing this in the
distant past.
