So here's a new one to me. A while back I mistakenly bought a used Walter Kidde Al80. I decided I didn't want to use it because of the 6351 issue so it sat in my garage for a while. The other day I was out running errands and brought the cylinder with me (devalved) to drop off at the local metal recycler. The guy told me that they couldn't take it unless it was cut in half - something about explosion risk. I asked and he said cutting more holes in it is not enough. I don't have access to one of those metal-cutting band saws and so now here I sit with it. I don't want to throw it in the landfill because that is stupid but I have no way to cut it up for recycling. I don't even want the $10 it is worth as scrap - I just want to get rid of it. Any ideas? Maybe dump it in one of those aluminum beverage collection bins under cover of darkness?
