Marine Fuel tank Fabrication

[@AhilMohan]

Excellent documentary. Learned a thing or two for my custom project

[@MaxQscience]

Marvelous craftsmanship ! I learned a lot from the is video of what to look for in a quality fuel tank. Thank you for posting this video fellas.

[@dominicgandy8360]

what a great and detailed explanation of marine tank fabrication. Thanks

[@philipmann1914]

Thanks men for your video. Really good stuff

[@eduardolehoux5338]

Great video..!

[@mjalkhabbaz]

Excellent work, I wonder though how many baffles did you install inside this 120 gal?

[@mftoutdoors7483]

They look very professional

[@SegoMan]

11:51 you have never ran a push / pull wire feed made just for aluminum.. They are amazing and a whole lot faster than TIG only..

[@straycat1081]

Nice job! I wonder do they sell materials and/or machine it to a customer's specs? I plan on fabricating a new 125 gal gas tank for my Grady.

[@windward2818]

Thanks for posting the video. What alloy of aluminum was used to make the tank?

[@garylarson6386]

sheet metal and no gloves, my hands would be all cat up, but they are doing quality work

[@mmusti1]

Guys done very good job.

[@maquinadesoldarautomatizac9013]

pretty neat.

[@sknight4817]

Some good fabrication just would like to see some PPE (gloves, eye protection sleeves etc....)

[@zacharygardemal8111]

And actually a hood on to make tacks!

[@nickskoora5736]

Wow was this filmed in the 1950 s . This was before cordless tools.

[@boathousedave2383]

Those guys have good skills

[@mcplutt]

Has to be a bit more than 120 gallons that tank.

SUBBED!!!!

[@adrianuskristianto5]

What type of Aluminum 5052? looks like 6mm thick?

[@angelfelix1201]

I need to fabricate a gas tank for electric generator. The material that I will be using is 11 ga mild steel. What do I need to know to keep the inside of tank from corrosion.

[@mahimahiaddictioncesargonz5445]

Hey What State are they Locared. I'm in Orlando, CDC an you referred me to a Company down here. Thanks

[@eccentricsmithy2746]

They could have has this done in half the time just by simply using a spool gun instead of tig.

[@billpizani6794]

No safety gloves?

[@gatekeeper88]

Name and model number pls of fuel sender?, I want one like that for my custom fuel tank for my dinghy.

[@HACK300NP]

Hello thanks for the video! How much you paid for that fuel tank?

[@user-ni6dj1yx8h]

that size its about 2,500 - 3,000$

[@h2oslider242]

What grade of aluminum?

[@juancarloslopezberbena2649]

do thay delivery to Canada?

[@SuperPatriotx]

You dont make marine fuel tanks in 1/8" alum...Should be 3/16" Min Coast gaurd wants 1/4" thick 100 gallons or more I will do 3/16" if less than 175 gallons and not a coast gaurd inspected vessel

[@sabbotslinger]

Avenue Welding not to mention EPA/CARB rules

[@farnhamclose11]

edge to edge= outside corner ( joint)

[@ThePollaxtroy]

Seems a bit slap happy to me.

[@zacharygardemal8111]

They work fast but very unsafe work practices

[@dso612]

Stainless steel Fuel Gauge and a Beer can TANK ? hmmmm

[@RalphSampson...]

What is the concern of stainless with aluminum? The two don't touch...except for maybe the screws but, it's stainless. Do you think the two metals would react?

[@cruisingsouthtrail]

I'm sure your client appreciates your greasy hand running down the joint about to be welded.

[@nanobrain3000]

Great looking tank but you should care a little for your workers.... Tig with T-shirts and exposing their skin to harmful UV. Spot weld without wearing welding helmet... people are exposing their skins and eyes to harmful Ultraviolet rays :(

[@zacharygardemal8111]

Yes EXACTLY!!! And this guys talking about oxidation in the weld. Aluminum doesnt OXIDIZE. Only way you have a problem is if you overheat and cook the aluminum. This guy is an idiot.

[@theessexhunter1305]

What a dangerous press brake..........

[@SegoMan]

Yup a lot of people see stars when they run a mechanical brake..

[@thewayidoit8895]

They cost thousands not hundreds of thousands or millions. Could never afford the one-off tank with all nee equipment.

[@theessexhunter1305]

@@thewayidoit8895 Is it your workshop ? Or are you just the spokes person for a dangerous piece of kit?

[@thewayidoit8895]

@@theessexhunter1305 I've run a similar machine. Retired now. why be so negative about equipment that built this world. We can't really afford to live in a world operating from a keyboard. Its going to catch up to us.

[@theessexhunter1305]

@@thewayidoit8895 I am still working and enjoy it, as a trained Toolmaker from the 70's working on all manual machines also a lot of time on press breaks big sheers power rollers rolling 3/8 plate. Teaching diving in the UK Egypt Africa. mobile welding on big piling rigs..Then you get to see what is dangerous.. Yes they make a nice job but just because what I see is dangerous and you don't like what I said, then hard luck. They don't make that type of press these days for a good reason. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnbGg2Btgp6opa8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZa6hKSej7KmgLs kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4bMd4GQbryIZs0

Marine fuel tank... stainless is the better option...

[@dso612]

why not use STAINLESS ? it dont rot,Fuel Tanks can be deadly made of CHeap BEER CAN Material

[@ethanschulz2067]

Because it is for a boat and stainless I is heavy, aluminum does not rust either and it is a lot easier to work with

[@CaptDavesSportfishing]

''alloys'' dude......not beer can material

[@Jorisinflorida]

Aluminum corrodes in a salt environment. My Albin 27 tank leaked, it's aluminum, I'm going nuts finding a good replacement.

[@SegoMan]

@@Jorisinflorida Correct, aluminum truck beds gets a clear coat but after it's gone AL oxidizes and turn black when exposed to road salts..

[@vancouverpoy]

i know its 7 yrs old comment but stainless steel and aluminum is a big difference in weight if you hold both pieces together in each hand.

Where is this place located? I need a costom tank made
