You guys know where you could buy a 55 gallon mixing barrel, rhat has a lid that completely comes off...then just sets back down on it. I had 1 @ the wash I sold, but left it. It had a large 3" lip, & a slot cut out the top to place your draw tube in.
It was a helluva neat barrel. Never seen one since...

For mixing powder chemicals, I cut a 5 gallon bucket down, then cut a hole in the top of a drum that the bucket top fits into and secure it with some screws that just keep the bucket top from lifting out.

I have a 50 gallon mixing container I bought many years ago from Sonny's when I was experimenting with powders. It has a motorized paddle mixer on it. I think it was $500 back then.
