Re: WANTED Oil Drum
The problem there shaz, as I see it, is that your dad is using a right handed tin opener, maybe the chap who made the drum put the lid on with a right handed "putter oner" so you need a left handed "taker offer" to remove it.
This forum is getting me as daft as of some of you.

DON'T use an angle grinder, any residual fumes inside that drum could ignite from the sparks.

Its quite obvious you haven't read the rules before you joined Gremlin, it clearly states you have to be a sandwich short of a picnic to become a member
