Perusing my way through an Asian shop that sells mainly cooking equipment I found a large collection of stainless steel and aluminium cooking vessels. The stainless steel vessels are on par cost wise with LHB prices (they were mainly Robinox?) But tucked away almost behind them were these...
They were not marked in litres but in diameter in cm. They worked out to be in volume 58L and 40L.
Cost 58L $85
40L $75
There are some problems with them however.

- handles are riveted on and some of the rivets are not tight = bacteria breeding ground. Solution: remove the rivets and braze to join the handles and fill the gaps then grind and polish
- flat s/s sheet shaped then welded on the seams with not much precision = bacteria breeding ground. Solution grind and polish.
- very thin walls (about .6mm) = some care with handling. Solution: insulate and all's well.
