So I got a 55 gallon drum today w/o a liner and its food grade.  My question is how to make a removable lid for it?  Just looking for some ideas so that I can start planning this build.  Thanks for any help.
 
Take a grinder and grind around the outside of the lip.  They are rolled lips.  Once you grind all the away around you will see a crack, then separate it.
