Finding a drum
Haha no problem Danny I'll take note, I got the lid cut off and hammered out the lid to fit on the top then burnt it out. I burnt it for around 2 hours and gave it a clean inside and out but it looks a strange colour compared to some of the guys on here after there burnouts! Still a few spots of...- deano

Finding a drum
Tried a few scrapyards with no luck but one pretty near me said they get them in quite regularly so think it will be a case of phoning up or dropping in every few days and hopefully getting some luck.

I've tried the usual eBay and gumtree routes and also google for any local businesses that may need to get rid of them but had no luck. I have found a few but they all...- deano
