Default I Want To CRY!!!

I just spent two evenings making my tank out of ali. got it all spot on and welded up and pressure tested it. everything was perfect on with no leakes. then i cocked up. i turned the pressure valve on the compressor the wrong way and it pushed out the sides of the tank which cracked the spot welds on the baffle in the middle. so i now have a nice fuel tight tank but the baffle is flapping around inside. grrrrr.

i dont have the time or energy to chop it open and sort it out. does anyone remember the name of that bloke that makes them? or have any contacts that can make me one?

Cheers Ash

this is the one i made. the ali welding isnt visually perfect but it was fuel tight :-(
