Love the tank... if it is going to really work, what about the heat from the tubes against the plastic?

Yeah right, 600v across the mains will be tough to pull off with my bike jenny too. But Dr Zarkov told me not to worry, his polymers are plenty tough to withstand Ming's Heat Ray.

HAHAHA... This will be cool no matter what you do with it...

First the vial of antifreeze on your Winter Build Off bike, now vacuum tubes in a lucite tank? You sir, have vision.

Some Egghead Jr work going on there!

Thanks guys, means a lot coming from you pro's. I'm thinkin' the tank will be pretty cool. But the back half of my frame is wacked. There's a braze repair behind the seat post that looks nasty and is a little twisted, both sets of tubes in the rear are beat to death and there's a bad arc weld done behind the BB that I filled in with some more stick weld, but it still ain't pretty. I'm contemplating major surgery if I can find a rear clip in steel. Might be time to stretch it too...

I always like the sound of a stretch!

This build is getting cooler all the time. Can't wait to see the finished tank. Very cool.

Went shopping for bits for my tank and found these!
Mesinger seat marked 8 dot 70. Those ain't wear spots on the edge either, it has a metal skid plate on the edge.
and a nice weathered black painted, brass case, Royal flashlight that works too...
Now to fab a bracket...

Wow, I need to shop where you shop!

 

[GuitarlCarl]

They call em' "Antique Malls" around here...
Lots of old junk to sift thru...

Carl.

 

[LukeTheJoker]

Great finds!

Luke.

 

[GuitarlCarl]

STILL struggling to find the correct bits to hang my tank
4 hardware stores around here and they are ALL out of what I want... I'm also looking for a frame to cut up, to replace the rear clip on mine, everything I have is a roller & I hate to cut one of those up... I'm also running stretch ideas thru my thick skull, digging for that Flash Gordon look... On the plus side my new seat looks great on the frame, I've also been looking at clear acrylic pedals to match the tank.

[GuitarlCarl]

incomplete but gettin' there...


can't show ya the other side tho it ain't done! (neither is this side really...)

Carl.

 

[kingfish254]

Sweet!!!
Bare metal is contrasting great with that wicked tank!

 

[LukeTheJoker]

Winner for best tank!

Luke.

Looks like when the drill finally stops working it will be useful as parts too.

I am liking the way the tank is coming together.
