I would like to scatter a couple really rusted 55 gal drums in a weedy corner of my industrial area, perhaps spilling the last of the Awfulstuffium that was inside into toxic puddles. Rather than just paint rust on a cast drum, I'd like to do something like score the ribs in some metal foil and roll the foil around a drill bit to form an empty drum, then corrode it in vinegar or something. I'm working in O scale, and typical kitchen aluminum foil is too thin to use. Anyone ever tried this, or seen an article on doing it? Gary Q
