    Didn't Work, Why Waste It?

    No sense in letting it go to waste if someone else can put it to good use....

    Least he was honest about it. Maybe you could pickle a body.

      Maybe the pickle smell will throw the dogs off the trail...

        I liked the part where he said it's food safe and smells like pickles. It was so incongruous I thought it was funny.

          That is one heckuva deal. That's the first "system" I've seen. Good tip about severing the arms at the shoulder...makes sense. I think the hacksaw is overpriced.

            especially if already used for the described application.

            Why throw it in the river when you can sell it on CL?

            If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

              Ya think the pricing is because of the dried blood?

                I was thinking of this guy.
                Rented a ryder truck, no credit card, cash only, fake ID. used the truck to bomb the world trade center, NYC the first time in 1993. After the explosion, he returns to the rental place, says the truck is stolen and wants his deposit back... $200.
                they tell him they need a police theft report. Meanshile the FBI traces the VIN of the exploded truck to Ryder and on his third visit back to claim his $200, FBI is waiting and he's arrested.

                  These barrels are often used to make garden composters, If you Google composters you will see the pictures of how easy they are to make. I bought one on Ebay for a Christmas gift for $165.
