:-) It lasts about a year on a bd processor lid, then it comes unstuck so you make another one. >If I go that route, >I have a nearly unlimited source of drums! I'm about to embark on a quest for 6 drums, for various purposes. Let's see, two more fuel storage tanks, one for SVO and one for bioheating oil, plus a drum to use as a charcoal kiln, one a housing for our biofuel heater, and one as the outer skin of a biogas digester. I'll use a 100-litre drum for a boiler for ethanol, already got two of those (closed tops). I'm not bothered about seals much, finding drums with cynch-clamp lids is the problem, or any lids come to that, most are closed-tops. But there's a printing company just this side of the village and they have these empty 200-litre drums with lids. Ink drums. Ulp. Colourful sort of job, cleaning them out. At least it's all squeaky-clean these days. I doubt I will be though, biodegradable or not. :-/ >Take care, I'll try! You too.
