I sold the rotisserie for $150.

That puts me at a $55 profit. I'll split that with the guy who gave me the gear reduction motor.

I wish I could eke out a profit on all my projects.

I think he mentioned something about "Tahoe".

Maybe it's the sauce.

It WOULD make a hell of a pig roaster though.

I'm just burning it in a bucket.

One final tumble in the morning with the diesel that's in it, then I'll remove the chains and spin a gallon of gas to wash it clean.

I advertised the rotisserie...

I don't envy me either. This tank is HEAVY. And it's near POLISHED inside, so I've got to figure out a replacement sending unit, and muscle it back into position.

I had an oil filter relocation...

I don't honestly know the rated volume of that monster, but I believe it was near full when it was parked, judging from the goo in the bottom.

I got it to post!

Several hours of tumble, it drained very dark (black) but no more goop clumps.

Two more gallons of diesel, and I tightened the belt tension to spin in a higher gear (faster).

OK thanks for the definition!

The first tumble with about four gallons of diesel produced an equally disgusting amount of goop.

The next tumble with maybe two gallons looks like it just might have some hope.

Now i'm...

Well if someone here would like to post some pixels for me, I'll happily forward them.

Oh, and I have no idea what that extensive acronym portents or deciphers.

Meanwhile I think the MEK has...

Looks like photobucket now wants $ to host my pixels. Well they have been getting progressively more difficult to use anyway.

What free sites are my options?

Ok. Ok. "Pichers" soon.

Ok, pixels soon!

Anyway, it's together and tumbling!

I spun the tank for about an hour, tumbling the MEK. There is still about 1/8" of goo on the bottom of the tank.

Next will be to drain...

Bed frame is interesting stuff to work with. Most of it seems hardened, but not uniformly so.

I have a set of TiNi DeWalt bits which are "stepped": that is they have a small starter point,...

Some progress between classes and VFW stuff.

For a pulley, I used a deck pulley which had stripped its inner splines. I drilled it out, then used a round file to get it to a press fit. I used...

I scored a gear reduction 115V motor. I'll be tumbling this tank soon.

Also,he had a craftsman riding mower with no deck. For $10 he let me take the starter and coil. I'm thinking maybe to get the whole mower plus a dryer motor, and mount the motor in place of the...

I was looking in the scrapyard for stuffs to make a power rotisserie for cleaning a 40 gallon gas tank, and my imagination didn't see the stuffs.

I did pick up 40 lb of bed frame, that's always...
