It's hard to tell the approximate size of that piston from the pictures. I was thinking it looked like the size of a 5 gal bucket. Now I'm thinking it looks like the complete piston might be closer to the dimensions of a 15 gallon drum and probably weighs 100 lbs. Looks like only about half of the piston made it to be embedded in the wall.
