This is what I do with Motorcycle gas tanks
I turn them into ART. An old rusty gas tank is turned into a Fish. Usually I pay about $5.00 bucks for the tank or I get it free from a friend. And cut, grind and weld. When they are all finished I get from $200.00 to $500.00 per tank/Fish
Here are four of the 74 fish I've made so far.

Thankyou, Very much. Here is picture of my shop that I'm in the process of trying to complete. I will be set up with my welding equipment and a forge and anvils. Can't wait to get it finished so I can go crazy making the things you don't see everyday......

Just because it did not work does not mean it was not a good plan!

I made a Large funnel out of 22 ga Steel, and attached the flower petals to the funnel. THEN Bent a piece of pipe to a disc brake from a car that is the base. I won't be on here very often for about a week. My computer is in the shop. Getting debugged.
