Charles and Gus,

It was fun! :thumbsup:
I like a challenge.

Gus, you have a good point!

They'll still make great un pressurized storage containers though.
Wish I could find some stainless steel tanks for really cheap!

I would assume that the man knows the difference between tanks and drums..I personally have never seen a SS drum, but that don't mean they ain't out there..

and I know from experience that a 55 gallon drum will not hold any pressure over 5 psi.
