    Id recommend plastic as well.

    I also strongly reccomend 2 tanks that are not joined in a manner that will permit syphoning. You might find that even in plastic 2 tanks are cheaper than one large tank. Espescially when it comes to custom fabricated ones.

    If you've benefited from one or more of my posts please remember, your taxes paid for my skill sets, I'm just trying to make sure you get your monies worth.
    If you think you're in front on the deal, pay it forwards.

    I have considered plastic, but custom made saves space and minimises liquid movement, also with plastic, being flexible, how do I secure it?
    After the holidays I will enquire what Fusion Australia: The Best in Plastic Piping System Products & Fabrication can offer.

    Dave, custom SS tanks will only cost me the price of materials.

    You might also consider HMDPE as an option, it doesn't react with water and is very strong and flexible.
    Cheers, Billy.

    That sounds expensive, Billy, but I could rope it in.

    I had a plastic ''made to measure'' tank done by a chap at Burpengary, cost about $100 if I remember correctly. Fits nicely between chassis rails. Can't fault it Ian

    The plastic tank in our Aussieswag camper is 16 years old and has never given the slightest problem.
