Hey, Phil!
Yeah, I didn't catch the original mention of things like Nitrobenzine. I've
got another drum coming to me soon, it has also only contained heating oil.
Lucky me.
So, I'm not sure yet if I'll use the chisel, try to get a sabre saw blade to
use on it, or do it the way I did this last one (I turned one large framing
hammer over so that its prongs were against the edge of the top, then hit it
with a 5 pound rubber mallet. The top was rusty enough that I was able to
pound it off in a relatively short time.)
Then again, I may just go get my friend who's a welder. Nah, the pounding
was half the fun!
