55 Gallon Drum Composter

I found a cool design for a composter made from a 55 gallon drum, some metal pipe, some hardware, and some 2x4's. I am interested in building one, but I am not sure where to find food grade 55 gallon drums.

Here's the site for anyone that was interested:

Any thoughts on where to find a food grade 55 gallon drum?

For food grade barrels like that go hit the local coke or pepsi bottling plant.

Check out Craig's list.

See if there is a local re-use board, often government, where people post there wants and freebies and cheapies up on a board.
