Hi John
I bought a leaky Chummy tank a few years ago. I tried some solder repairs but the rusting was so extensive that I had difficulty getting everything clean enough for the solder to take. And in any case the original turned out to be more like a cullender.
I decided to cut off the front of the tank and build a new tank behind it to the same dimensions as the original. I used brass and was surprised how inexpensive it was.
Cheers
Howard
