I've noticed that before, I believe it's the edge of the pit and they were trying to make the outer lip of a salvage drum top look like bone. This is photo of a salvage drum and its outer plastic lip can be seen along its metal ring:

More of the lip section is shown from 10:40 to 11:00 and then from 11:09 to 11:14. The melted plastic can be seen on the lower piece from 11:20 to 11:24 then again 11:31. At 11:31, inside the lipped section, the raised support sections are visible. If you look to the right side of Exhibit 175, to the left of the wire pile & seat remains, you'll find the outer metal ring of the drum:

The outer metal ring also appears in Exhibit 169:

This is the one i used. I dont think theres any way it will collapse. Very heavy duty
Ya it's pretty thin for most dust collection. You could always buy the galvanized metal can which would be beefy and not too expensive. There's a HDPE one I bought which is around $35 on Amazon but is probably like x5 the thickness and no issue with the 3HP DC system. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LDEP0C/
I believe the cyclone dust collector recommends a container >90 mil. I've been looking to set up a dust collector my self and was thinking of using this or this one. If you look at the comments you'll see photos of other peoples set ups.
