Yes that is a trash can. I built my 4 frame extractor using a new food safe trash can for the body of the device. I have an earlier post on the project if interested. It works great.
I really like the old cast iron honey gate (another antique). Works fine.
This is my set up that I have prior to going to my apiary to rob the hives. I have a 16 ft trailer attached to my tractor that I do all of the dirty work, I do not care if I get some honey on the trailer.

I appreciate simple, inexpensive ways of beekeeping. I learned in a hurry that you can spend a fortune on equipment from a catalogue. A lot of it just isn't necessary. Hope you'll keep sharing your ideas. You've already helped me. Thanks!
Thanks for the comment. And thanks for reading my blog.
