Yes, its better that a mild steel drum as far as corrosion goes,but it will
sure buckle into some funny shapes if you get it too hot!

It'll twist up like a pretzel. Stainless is a bugger to move when it

gets
hot.


Eh?

So I pulled a stainless drum out of my old dead washing machine.


People have been using 55 gallon (mild steel) drums for decades, I'd think
stainless would work just as well, if not better. It's somewhat more
heat-resistant, no?
