How I make an aluminium motorcycle petrol tank (gas tank) & other alloy metalwork.

Full length video of how I make an alloy petrol tank and other sheet metal work including panel-beating & oxy-acetylene welding. Excuse abrupt edits. Other tips:- always use a mask when welding to protect from fumes. Use a lint-free cloth for polishing. Make sure tank is rubber-mounted to prevent fatigue cracks. A large tank may need baffles. When tapping the little low-spots when panel-beating, there is no need to rest it against the block; that was only so the camera could see it. Hope this is of interest
