what do you guys use for a waxing or dying pot, and where did you get it??

i am tryin to find one and need some ideas

I use a 1/2 of a 50 gal barrel to boil my traps in.

my DYE pot is a old washing machine tub, i welded the drain hole closed (the OLD style)

my wax pot is a stainless cooking pot...a big one.

I just got an old metal pot at a flea market for 3 bucks and waxed today with it worked great

my dye pot is a old grease barrel, maybe a 30 gallon? free from the dump. wax pot is a galvanized pail, switching to a turkey fryer pot next year.

i forgot my dye pot is a 55 gal drum cut down

about how far down ya cut a 55 gallon drum?? and also, what do you use to hold it over the fire/heat source

I picked up 2 at the dollar store. They were $10 each. I got the biggest they had (12qt). When I dyed, I could get 3 MB550's with 6' of chain and a drag on each into the pot. If ya have a bunch of traps it would take a while.

I have my 55 barrel cut in half. I welded a couple links of chain to the top in 3 places. Then I hang it from a tripod or heavy tree limb and build my fire under it.

I have mine cut down to about a 1/4 and stack bricks in a semi circle and put fire under it bricks help keep heat in and can get plenty of wood in there to boil

I use and old cast iron soap making kettle,to boil in , It takes about 20 gallons to fill, but i can get close to 40 traps in it, for waxing I a regular aluminum pot,( I stole it from my wifes cabinet heh heh !!) I have about 10-12 pounds of wax in it. I heat it on a propane camp stove.

I went to Walmart and got large pots, dirt cheap

I use a cut down 100 lb. propane bottle for cleaning traps. I don't dye anymore. I use the barbeque size bottle cut down for waxing. I weld handles on the sides.

behcon, wat type of pots did you get??????
