I'm hoping some one has a pdf of the oil tank dimensions. I want to build one like brant. Heck I'll send him a pm and see if he has them. If you've built your own or have the dimensions feel free to post them. Pics are good.

Mild steel would be the easiest to build. You can paint the outside and coat the inside to minimize rust. I don't like the odds of a rust flake travelling through the bearings though. I'm going with aluminum for fear of just that.
I haven't decided whether to form it or piece it. Forming is time consuming but it limits the amount of seams. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Aluminum and formed. You could make a wood buck for a hammer form pretty easy. This is just another one of those projects I would do if my life was different. Working for a living is over rated. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) lottery anyone? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
