Ron,                            

I received the drum and I am impressed the way you
have made it.  People tease me that I over build when
I make anything, but there is no substitute for
strength and quality.  I can see how the drum will
last forever, great work.

I haven't roasted coffee in it yet, but I did the
initial burn.  I have a small BBQ, but the heat
quickly climbed to 500 degrees and then slowly up to
the 600-degree range, way more then I had expected or
need.  I am looking forward to roasting.

Feel free to use my comment on your web site.

Sincerely,
Bob Wuest #44
