When they are like that they are difficult to drain down and just a tad heavy!

Never take a cylinder like that apart as the scrap man will give you less for it.

I think he wants top chop open a cylinder from around here.

We had one, could only pour 15/20 litres of water in Till it was filled up!

The water in England must be poor! Water over here, in a lot of areas is good & limescale is unknown. Have seen some grade 3 cylinders here in shiney clean order inside after 20 plus years.

Some yards give u a tank price and not a weight price due to scales. The north east is no where near that bad 180ppm

Must admit, he seems to know how to use his chopper well. Never thought that a copper cylinder insulation could come off so easily!
