how are you guys cutting the tops off these kegs????
BierMuncher, im not gunna lie, you should avoid putting your wrists anywhere near that thing. Haha, bet it makes great brew though!
I bought mine pre-cut, but I think the best way is with a plasma cutter (if you can get your hands on one) or angle grinder.
I was planning to buy an inexpensive electric angle grinder tomorrow, at the local Harbor Freight. I'm looking at their catalog now, and I see that I can buy a pneumatic one for around the same money, and I do have a nice air compressor.
Any opinions on which is a better choice? My immediate purpose is for cutting a keggle, but I'm sure I'll find lots of uses in the future.
I had to take it slow because it started to smoke!
I went about half-way then let it cool for about an hour, then finished the job. It worked OK, but I don't think you want to keep it for extended periods of time. If you use one, go sloooowwww....
Some around here would say a firing range and an RPG round is not the way to do it...but I let my end product speak for itself...
