Time for an update, progress has been somewhat slow recently but I have managed to finish making my fuel tank. Afraid that I forgot to take pictures as I went along, but initially I made a cardboard mock up to work out dimensions and fit, then using this pattern I could cut some steel and fold all the components, the top seam and mounting brackets were first tinned then riveted together before sweating solder in to seal. The baffle plate was spot welded in place, the ends were tinned then soldered in leaving a 3/8" overhang on the flange, the outer part of this flange was then wrapped back over the seam clenching the end cap in place and solder sweated all the way around to seal. I took the threaded casting for the sender mounting out of a rusty Ruby tank and soldered this into the top of mine which will house a modified Ruby type sender.
