Riveted aluminum fuel tanks are smart. They're easy to build and
superbly
practical for the homebuilder since she can make them in whatever
shape she
needs...

...For lo-buck builders, riveted, sealed and sloshed fuel tanks are a
practical
alternative to other methods of fabrication, their use so common we
tend to
forget others may not have heard of them.

Thanks for all the input folks. I have bookmarked the website for
premade tanks and will take it into consideration, especially if I
need a grey water tank! However, I am a tinkerer so I will probably
get some new tools and fool with the other methods mentioned here too.
By next year, most of my livingspace furniture should be either
Aluminum or PVC... the wife should be thrilled, lot's of "ashtrays" in
the beginning I suppose. Gosh, I love buying new tools!
