I'll be the devil's advocate. By the way, very nice work you have done to that tank! My question is similar to rallysman, in that if the old vinyl frame was taken out, and replaced with a "glued on" aluminum frame, how is the support for all the sides, top and bottom? Did you have to weld the aluminum?
I'm taking notes on the next used tank I get
