Does anyone have any tip on who could cut and weld a keg in Sydney?
I would like to please a 4" flange on the top in the centre and 2 2 " flanges also all the way down the keg for elements.

I have the flanges, all I need is a keg so hints to were I can find one would be appreciated too.

Call some microbreweries and ask if they have any damaged ones for sale. Some metal recycling places may also have some.
If your local pub sells imported beer eg. German or American, you might be able to talk to them or their distributor about buying a keg. Generally those kegs are one way - they don't ship them back overseas.
Failing that some homebrew stores sell new 50L kegs - Keg King have them and most likely others.

Be wary of private sales of kegs, most likely they have been stolen from pubs etc. They are still the property of the brewery.
