will the cut wheel on the angle grinder make to many sparks and pit the inside of the container. or should i do something like drill a small hole in the top of the keg and fill it with water so the sparks dont hit the sides. help.
whats the proper way to convert a standard half barrel into a boiling pot.
I’ve been through this twice. I actually used a sawsall to cut it open, but then did some finishing cuts with the angle grinder. I would recommend going slow and using cutting oil if you use the sawsall method that I did. Good luck.
The welding shop only wanted $10/keg for a plasma cut.
Couple bucks more and they tacked on three stainless washers to the cutout so I can use it as a lid.
came out good. angle grinder. no water just the stale beer that was leeft in it. still wanna tune up the edges more…or thats what my arm told me after i washed it. ouch.
