Guy has 4, 55 gal. stainless barrels for $325 a piece. If I bought em and made UDS's out of them. Think somebody would pay enough to make it worth it?:whistle:
What would you pay?:noidea:

SS would make a killer looking UDS I would think.

Nope.
They're too easy to make. And whether the drum is SS or not does not add much "value" to the average UDS user.:noidea:

And, a painted steel UDS should last a really, REALLY long time...:thumb:

all good points. a new SS barrel is $700+, so the 325 is a good deal, but not good enough for a UDS. the whole point of a UDS is because they are cheap. sure, it would litterally last forever, but is it really worth paying $500 for one by the time you figure in all your other parts, labor, etc.?
i'm with rich... SS is $1 per pound here right now... offer him $50 at the most, or walk away. especially if they have dents.
