I was just digging out back and found a 9" x 20" piece of 0.090" thick 5052-H34 Aluminum Sheet, plus I got a bunch of 1/4 x 1-1/4 6061-T6 Aluminum Bar to use as a backer flange.

If an 8x8 or 9x9 piece would work to fix the tank bottom, I'll send Cecil enough stuff to fix both tanks.

If Cecil can give me a centerline dimension on the four bolt holes in the tank, plus the hole diameter, I'll whip out a quick drawing for the fix and send that also so you have a plan. Things are always easier with a defined plan.

I am heading to the post office on Wednesday!
