    Easiest way i can think of is a can opener ....

    I've always done them with a cutting torch. (If there are any concerns you could always fill em water first.)

    Seems like an ankle grinder or air chisel would work pretty well too. ( They might strike a spark.)

    Should it be filled all the way to the top? Want to be safe as possible. Ill most likely use grinder.
