Since the next 3 days or so are 20+ mph winds here, I can't really burn it out right now. My question to you, is should I leave the doors tabbed in, or finish them out, before doing the fire? With the 1 end open, and the other closed, and me being a big guy, I can't really climb into the tank...
Well, I picked up the trailer this evening from my mfg. They got the end cut off, it mounted to the trailer (directly to the frame), and the doors cut ready for hinges (they just need the final tabs cut to finish them out).
Now I need to get some hinges, a grinder, stuff for my new (to...
Well, I dont have to worry about cutting it open... I took the tank / trailer back to my trailer mfg yesterday, and the owner is going to get it cut open, plug areas fixed up, and it removed from the skids and mounted to the trailer where I want it.
He said when I come to pick it up, if I had...
Just got to work... Been driving since 6:15am CDT (its 9:35a now)
Actually had a little trouble getting the trailer out of the driveway... more than getting it in. It kept wanting to hit the fence on one side, and the tree on the other. Narrow alleyways suck.
How dirty is the water going to be when I cut this open if I fill it up? I am asking, because we are in a drought here in Texas, and I dont really have anywhere near me to pump it out to... I am trying to keep myself from getting fined because of the massive runoff that will probably...
I found a Hobart Handler 175 (still works) with regular and a "custom" cart yesterday on Craigslist for $200, so I picked that up. Tomorrow I will be going up toward the Red River to pickup the 10' 500gallon tank I found. Hope to have it strapped to the trailer by 8am, so I wont be late for work.
Got the trailer this morning:)
I might have a line on a 10' 500 gallon tank for it. I'll know about it in a couple days. If that falls through, there are a ton of 250 gallons for sale in the area for the same cost as the 500gallon, so no big loss.
Early this morning I was up at the trailer mfg to pay them / sign paperwork so it has plates when I pick it up... and they already had it 80% built... they were finishing the floor (expanded metal), and then he said it would go get primed and painted tonight, with them wiring up the electrical...
I couldn't wait... so I just ordered the trailer from the local mfg. He says I can have it by Friday afternoon. Ordered the 16'x83" tandem with expanded metal flooring. I am suppose to go out to him tomorrow morning so I can give him the check / sign the DMV paperwork for the title stuff...
I am a long time lurker, first time poster, so take it easy on me.
Lately I have been cooking for more and more people (Labor day was a 60+ person family cookout), and have committed to some charity events and work parties (estimating 400+ in April). My small offset barrel smoker wont do the...
