The reason I was asking about the steel drums is because at my work we go through about 2 drums a month, and we just cut the lids off and throw them away. The contents that we cary is 'Perkote' which is, ironically, an anti-oxitive. We put it inside of our washer's because we wash approx. 1,000,000 steel parts a week. We need to keep them from rusting. So i highly doubt the inside of the steel drum is going to be rusty.
Does anybody know if adding Perkote to a WB cooling setup would do anything? Anybody else even know what Perkote is? Heh, thanks for the replies, but I'm not going to be using the Steel drums anymore. I'm going to be making some 'drums' out of plexiglass.
I have a secret that I'm going to spill right now, but I think it's going to be an awesome idea. I'm going to be opening a business (not going to tell what kind, that'd ruin the fun of it all). But I'm going to have 35 computers in it, and I'm going to water cool all of them from a central tank (I know 50 Gal isn't going to cut it, but I have more stuff). I'm not going to use a Radiator to cool it either. I'm hoping for below ambient temperatures from a closed loop circuit.
You guys can draw your own conclusions. Thanks again for the replies, you are all veyr helpful all the time!
