How to Recycle Metal Drums?

We don’t usually find metal drums lying around our house useless. It’s rare that we come across these huge containers unless we buy large quantities of some sort of liquid or paint. But if you do have a couple of metal drums just lying there doing nothing, you should rather recycle them instead of disposing them as garbage or trash. DIY recycling projects for metal drums comprise of various ideas and techniques that can help you in converting these waste metal drums into extremely useful products.

(1) Single seat chair / benches:

You might not come across this thought of creating a single-seat chair out of a metal drum but this is a great recycling idea. Cut a curve piece of the drum. Now that you have an open space place cushions or foam inside to make it comfortable. Use the earlier cut metal piece as the back rest for the chair. And you’ll have a new single-seat chair by just recycling a metal drum.
