I have read the problems are not from a common BBQ or RV style propane tank, but with the large stationary tanks. The smaller tanks have a short life and do not get re-filled very often compared to a stationary tank. On the other hand, a stationary tank might have a service life of 30 years...

And you will see in that video I demonstrate in detail exactly how to safely cut in half any tank that use to contain flammable/explosive contents!

I just finished making myself a used engine oil drain pan & tank from scrap LPG tanks. Took me longer to edit the video than it did to make the project! The video runs 16 minutes, here it is...

I'm soooo happy!!!! I NEVER win anything. This is great - thanks a bunch.

Here it is in action...

This will be my last review of the turf roller. I might follow up with another video showing it in action...

This project is done, but not yet finished. Today we completed assembly then went for a shake-down thrashing around the pastures and lawn for about an hour. A quick look-over didn't reveal any failures. We expect some dry weather and heat in a few days so I will use that opportunity to throw...

I grew up in a big city... Married & bought a brand new 'starter home' way out in the desert suburbs, in a massive housing tract of little cookie-cutter homes. I never realized I was in a 'yard-keeping war' with the entire neighborhood! One day I mow the lawn in an East/West direction and...

Had a major achievement here today! Most important thing about today is nobody got (severely) injured. 2nd most important thing about today is I didn't break my concrete floor! But that roller is a heavy SOB! I was welding on the fill cap and stopped to reposition the roller by 1/4...

I think the tool I use the most that is not directly related to actually putting down weld bead is probably weld prep like a flapper disc.

I have one of those new-fangled small 'spray can' style fire extinguishers close by and a bit further back I have a plastic 25 gallon water barrel just in case things start to get way.

I got in a full day of work with the roller project on Sunday. It is now ready to be filled with concrete. I plan to do that on Wednesday. Here are a couple photos: Hole cut from end for easy filling with concrete. When the last bucket of concrete goes in I will use some tape and the...

I'm going with 100% full concrete. Should be about 2,250 lbs completed.

Howdy! New member and this is my first post. I've got a little project I've been building up to for many years now. Looks like it might finally come together in the next week maybe. I want a really heavy duty turf roller to tow behind my tractor, maybe my SxS too. To this end I have been...
