Not a problem... I thought that it might look like my comments, but didn’t really see an easy way to isolate it, (actually I didn’t try too hard... LOL)
While I am pretty well stocked up, I still add to it every chance I get. Only yesterday, I expanded my working storage capacity - finally was able to get 6 barrels - 2 for fuel, 2 for a greenhouse wood burning barrel stove and two for additional chicken feed grain storage. It has taken a month and a half for those barrels to be available. $9 each (55 gal.)
I went back and looked at your post and saw the link to a blog. Duh! I just wasn’t paying attention. Now that I’ve finally caught up on this thread, I’m trying to stay that way, maybe reading too hastily. :)
$9 sounds like a good price for your barrels. Are all of them metal drums or some plastic? Hubby was able to get a few of the plastic drums from work in the past years and he has feed for the chickens stored in them. He was trying to get a couple more, but they keep disappearing as soon as they are emptied. I’m guessing there are some others back in the factory area that are trying to get them, too.
2 for a greenhouse wood burning barrel stove<<<
Bill used the iron inside tank of a hot water heater, he cut the top out of the side and welded a flat iron plate in the cut out area for cooking.
It lays on the side, with a flat top...works and is good at cooking things.
