Default Have you made your own steel petrol tank?.......

...... if so what thickness of sheet did you use? The closest stockest to me has 0.8mm & 1.5mm at good prices but I would have thought something about 1-1.2mm would of been better. Is 0.8 up to job? Is 1.5mm to much?

Any thoughts welcome. Yes I probably should go the alloy route but can't weld it myself and it'll cost me at least 3 times as much by the time someone does it for me. Budget's very thin these days!!!
