I gave my friend Doug the Oscar Gaddy series on this process from DGJ. He made up a set of tanks from big pvc and took a crack at it on these barrels from a 16ga 0 frame GH. Not bad for his first attempt. Unfortunately this was about 10 years ago and haven't been able to get him to do it again. I think it was more of an exercise to see if he could do it. He's a rocket scientist at NASA working on the Space Station project.

Its filthy, long, dirty, smelly job. Maybe that's the reason he won't do it again. Maybe its also wiser to send the barrels and $300 to Dale Edmonds.

That's why I haven't taken it up. Some things I'd rather pay someone else to do. What's a Yankee Air Pirate Bruce?

Tell your friend to forget the trivial pursuits and get busy with the important things in life.

Can't argue with ya there Bill. Unfortunately his wife has become accustomed to to a certain standard of living and would fight it, and she's tough.
