It’ll be slow progress we just do when we have time. I’m impatient but also busy and @HotRocks has other things to do other than work on my stuff, apparently.

@HotRocks may have slept on the couch last night...

@4FordFamily How's the condition of the tank scratch wise? Are you going to have to buff it at all?

 

[Antics]

Looking good! Feels like every time I check this thread there's good progress being made. I was expecting it to be a 3 year build.

0 scratches. Mint condition. Somehow we managed to get it through the doorway to the stairwell with literally 1/16" clearance without scratching it. It's close to 1000lbs so that was a feat. Could only have 4 guys on it in the stairwell.

The tank is only a year old.

Jason can't wait 3 minutes to do anything... Let alone 3 years. We weren't an hr into our 6 hr roadtrip home with the new tank and all the equipment was ordered lol

It was largely scratch free at its past home. It’s just filthy now and I’m waiting until it’s wet to clean — I don’t want to scratch it by cleaning it dry.

It was only about a year old or so. Looked to be in great shape when full

Yeah but for once I tried to put the brakes on it and haven’t rushed anyone. It’s not a priority but we are making great progress!

Wow this is some project. I admire your ambition, and we'll be following for sure.

I am not really good at DIY so I would be like Brett on tanked. “I’m here for some good verbal abuse”.

I’m not sure when it’ll be done, lots of events coming up our available time is slim but we are making progress!
