Thread: Help with 55 gallon barrel?

Tweet

Ok I have a 55 gallon barrel thats plastic. I cut the top off and primed it. I have been looking for pics on here, but have not come across any on how to design the outside. I was hopeing for some input, my mind is froze on this one?

how about a toxic waste container like this one

Yes! That looks awesome Burja. I have stared at this barrel for a week! Thank you!

no problem maybe some dry ice or a fog machine inside too might be cool. oh man staring at it for a week? well good luck with your design

Ever seen "Return of The Living Dead?" Here's what I did to mine...




I still plan to add a window on top with a zombie inside. Maybe a live one on the big night.

I saw someone do this in a 55 gallon drum and it looked good..........they left the lid on so it looked like it was bubbling out ........its just greatstuff spayed around the edge.............then painted flouresant green ............these are some pics of my cauldren I did Halloween Forum - theooggieman's Album: My pics
good luck

Bruja pulled up the same photo I used to make my toxic waste drum's skull and crossbones stencil. I got the fonts that I used for the lettering stencil from fontspace.com. They have a nice search engine - just type in "stencil" and select the font you like.

Below is the link to a photo of my toxic waste drum (which is also a fog chiller).

It took me almost two cans of paint to turn my blue drum into a yellow one. Someone else on this website (sorry, bad with names) had made a biohazardous waste drum that looked great and inspired me.

Here is what one of my students came up with.

Thanks for looking,

Found it. It was Floridaspook that had made the biohazardous waste drum. The link below is the thread it was shown in (just scroll down to post #35), plus details on making a chiller throughout the thread.

Cheers!

Looks great! That was a student project? Looks like that would be a fun class! Halloween 101. I may have changed my major if that was offered when I was in school.
