55 gallon drums?

Does anyone know where I can get 2 used, semi clean, non dented drums?
Tight lids would be good, but I can deal with removable ones.
I plan to build a smoker for the back yard.

It should look like this when finished.

Seems like the heat transfer through the flues might make hot spots directly above them. but with a little extra sheet metal over the flues might help to deflect direct heat.




Thanks in advance,

Did you try Craigs list?
Maybe a Google search...
I have two, but they contained leaded fuel.....you don't want to use them.
Besides, they now stock my emergency stash of gas!!

I only want to use barrels that have had liquid for HUMAN consumption in them. I think I found some in the valley. pretty cheap too.

Thanks guys
