Default PM me......

Mike.....pm me with what your looking for. I would have them shipped to Calgary. I have some trucks coming here on a large project. I just picked one up at a swap meet last month for $15.00, but that's not to put a knife in your back! Consider them sold.

Cheers.....Robert

Uh...you guys know this thread was from 2007, right?

On a side bar about the 4 gallon cans, not all were disposable. We have a pair of 4 gallon cans at the museum that have the regular brass caps on them.

Default Damn...

Missed that Rob. So why did it it pop up again? A little enlightenment please Rob/Hanno. Kind regards.....Robert...... PS: Was in Calgary a couple of weeks ago and picked up 4 nice 25 pounder metal containers at our old friends at Ribtor, plus had a nice visit with Gordon from Crown Surplus. Bofors is still there. Cheers.....Robert

Rob, yes sturdier reusable 4-gallon cans did exist - usually stamped B.M.B on the base, but for these reasons they do not qualify for the prestigious 'Flimsy' title!
