At the risk of starting up an old thread that I think ran to long the first 
time.

I set up at a reenactment last weekend next to the Kettle Corn guy who 
noticed that my forge pan was made from the end of a large LP tank.  He then 
told me that his kettle, used to pop the corn, was also the end of a large 
LP tank.  His grand farther made the set up 25 years ago and it has gotten 
used almost every week since.  After popping, the corn is dumped into a 
giant copper kettle where it is bagged up.

So if you want to make a large kettle and have access to an old LP bulk tank 
that may be an option for you.

Now all the guys that know how to safely cut an LP tank can tell you how to 
do it without killing yourself.
