[QUOTE="CarlHungness, post: 162458, member: 2517"] I've seen many videos on motorcycle tank construction, so am pretty familiar with their construction, but that still doesn't tell me where I need to start beating. I am going to spend a lot of hours making a buck initially and will then get out the shot bag, stump and hammers. Now, I'm getting my first hydrogen tank as I have to hone my aluminum welding skills using the hydro and oxygen. My initial plan was to use .063" aluminum and clone the existing tank. What thickness steel did you use for your tank? Mine will be three pieces, two sides and a top as far as I can see. It will be several months before I start as I'm finishing restoration of my 1937 LaSalle and have a sculpture to do of a violin maker presenting a new instrument. I'm 3-D printing my own 1707 Strad copy so I don't have to carve a quarter scale violin. Would like to know the precise steel designation you used too if you can recall what it was. [/QUOTE]
