lamanated Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 I was looking into them and the suppliers call them Drum upenders, thought the link would be of some use. Cabot shipping supply sells them in Canada. http://www.beacontechnology.com/drumequipm...nt/drumupender/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
212wrench Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Why don't you just weld a clip onto your bung wrench that fits on the barrel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamanated Posted October 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 5 years ago I could , found out Cabot's one isn't as nice as the one in the link, however Fastenal and Acklands carry the Vestil one http://www.vestilmfg.com/products/dhequip/drum_tipper.htm you can cut the end tabs down to open the bungs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ame206350 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Why don't you just weld a clip onto your bung wrench that fits on the barrel? The short handle of the bung wrench kind of blows when you need to pry a drum out of the ice. Anything that's easy on the back is a good idea too. I've had to roll and lift drums of fuel for three machines on summer seismic doing 20 min turns and 7+ rev hours a day for 3 weeks straight....I would have killed for that thing. Good idea nonetheless for the bung wrench, would come in handy for sure. Post a pic of yours when you get a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

212wrench Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 If you need extra leverage put your bung wrench inside the stand pipe. makes a nice 4 ft long arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
