    Exhaust hoes on car or truck piped into it=co2 no o2 means no fire done it before.Just let it run for awhile,clap or tack a piece of angle iron to it and make a nice cut

    Just to reply to the original post, it was a high school shop student in Ottawa who died last year when a barrel he was cutting exploded. It's the fumes that caused the explosion, and oil drums would have less than containers containing gasoline, but you can never be too safe. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa...explosion.html

    A few hundred taps on 3/16 into 3/4" mainline
    Can't stop thinking maple, more fun, than work.
