The ribs look great, the UDS looks awesome! loe the stainless...was it a "find" or did you buy somewhere? I am assembling parts for my first UDS - just got an unlined barrel yesterday!!

It's not a find.
There is a recycled drum dealer in Knoxville, they had about 20 of them for 50 bux each. (They also had 85 gal. and 100 gal. drums).
They are closed end and you have to cut the top out. They are not perfect, they have small dents in them but not to hard to work out with a hammer and dolly. Well worth the 50 bux in my opinion.
This one should last me forever.
