WTD: 200L oil drum

Does any know where I could get an empty 200L oil drum from - Harrogate area

My son-in-law wants to make a BBQ from one and the only ones he can find on flebay are down south.

Ask around the farms or fuel companys. They often have a return value of around £12

We use Texaco at work & they dont take them back any more, we cut the tops out & use them for scrap bins! So yes, ask at some place that uses oil in bulk like garages but folk who work on stuff that takes more oil will be the best bet so agric engineers, plant operators, truck mechanics & the like.

I was told there is a £60 return on them !!!

My other half is after a couple for horse jumps / obstacles or something..... (I have no interest in 1hp things ) so if anyone knows anywhere in Spalding area with some I will happily pay £12 each for them

P.S. Sorry to start scrounging for the same thing on your thread jabs





There is no replacement for displacement...

I built one out of a gas cylinder, IMHO far better than my mates barrel BBQ.
Dont forget to unscrew top off and fill with water for a couple of days 1st!!!





Something about this, so very wrong.....I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn`t like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
