I fancy knocking up an oil drum style BBQ for the summer. I need a 45 gallon drum really, used being fine, there are a few about on ebay but nothing near Oxford. Anybody know where else I could look, what sort of places use these drums? Not even having any luck looking for places that sell brand new ones

Quite a few places do them ready made but I want to have a go at knocking one up. Want it made is so it has a proper closing lid, some of the ready made ones are open which isn't great.
I'll check out some car garages

As said, go to a garage, but you may have to "order" one as they normally have to book them onto the truck to take them away, so you may have to wait a week or two.

That alfa bbq is cool I've seen all the ones on ebay, but none are really close enough to make it worth going for considering how much they cost. I'll check out some garages at some point though
