tacked up the tank halves to the new steel
then seamed the buggers up. Despite having the shakes still from the weekend I'm happy with my welding skills today!
a couple of shitty areas where there was porosity, but nothing that cant be sorted out...
The bottoms were a bit of a bugger to get right, but got there in the end...
gave them a clean up and were looking pretty good. they will sit either side of the frame, and I will be making a false top so they look like they meet with a nice small gap down the middle....
oh, and the caps dont quite match - dont get that - so i'm either gonna have to cut and re-weld one to match, or work out a way to go single sided with split tanks..... There may be a way to make them look like split tanks but actually having them joined - but cant do that till i have the frame back....
