Something I knocked up on the weekend. Drum is loaded with old lounge cushoins and mat hides a reeded deck. Positioned it so that my girl has a good view down the drive and can keep an eye on things.
Nice work!!! well fabricated.
Just a warning for people who want to cut into 44 gallon drums.
People often decide to recycle used 205 litre (44 gallon) or smaller drums for other uses. Cutting a drum that has contained flammable or toxic substances is dangerous and has caused serious injuries and fatalities. Flammable vapours in the drum can cause the drum to explode during welding or cutting. It is often unclear what's been in an empty drum, and flammable or toxic vapours may persist in the drum for years.
Even after cleaning, small amounts of vapour left in a drum can explode.
Overflowing drums with water is not a satisfactory way of de-gassing drums as this method often pushes vapour pockets to the top of the drums where they can be ignited.
A single spark inside an empty drum can set off a massive explosion.
Cool kennel LW
you have got me thinking I could make one of those for my staffy and if I could some how plumb it up and connect it to the gas heating in the house, some how harness the methane energy this heinous farting machine produces I could prob halve our heating bills this winter
My wife whants me to build one so I could move in it! I said yes no prob but I need a big one to take all my toys with me as well as a girl friend!
