[QUOTE="CarlHungness, post: 162573, member: 2517"] Hi: 20 Guage is 0.0319" and 19 is 0.0358" and I have been planning to use .063" aluminum which seems like quarter inch to me...Possibly I'll use some steel. My right thumb didn't move at all for a total of 37 years. Had an operation and got about 60% usage, then became a violin apprentice. The thumb broke after 20 years, went another five as it didn't move, another operation has given me about 50% usage but there's big hump on the bone at the rear so using a hammer knocks the skin off right away. I have a leather cover for the front, still experimenting with the back. I need to hammer this stuff first to learn how it moves, then hope to progress to at least a good planishing hammer, and power hammer. So I have a long learning curve, but I've been there before. Your tank came out just great and I was really impressed with your method of putting all the pieces together, it worked just fine. [/QUOTE]
