Hi chaps and many thanx to all who helped. Here is a photo of the tank…I have not put the markings on yet….will try to remember to put a piccie of it in place…..next is the deice selector, pipework and mounting on frame 10 for the pump! Note Merlin’s nose!!

Nice Bits..
Now that is a stunning piece of work..
Valve bracket is here…Still working out the valve itself though.With all the radiuses etc it is a pain in ProD to get right without the program chucking a narnie.Any chance of some measurements of the fittings for the tank itself??Unless you would like to see a grown man beg:D

Very, very nice Tony!

Nice job Tony.
Ive got to do two reservoir tanks for the Hornet – one de-icer, and one hydraulic. Both are a bit complex to make including a lot of tin bashing and aluminium welding, but I have managed to find the correct filler spouts for both which is half the battle!
Will you be displaying your Spit again at Newark in 2010?

All part of the service mate 🙂

I think I’ve got a flat one with the mounting straps wrapped around it. Will dig it out and get you pics and sizes. All the best, Ian
cheers Ian, that would be really helpful too!
