That is construction phase obviously; pre grab tube etc.. Got a 600L one and a 400L with space in between for 25L oil drums.

They are only good for diesel so no chance of a fire, terminals are bolted on which is better than the croc clips the pumps come with Petrol is a completely different game.

My concern would be that once out of your control someone would stick petrol in it as people in my experience people are pretty stupid... I bet I am not the only person to have witnessed guys fuelling saws saws with a lit fag..

I hate to play devils advocate and of course it is very silly.....................but have you ever tried to ignite petrol with a lit cigarette?

Its a good point, Mick said he will put diesel only stickers on them in an attempt to make them numpty proof.

Its a bit odd, sometimes they appear other times they are gone. Its not to do with this site it must be a photobucket glitch, seems to be down quite a lot lately .

Mick Dundee has gone walkabouts ( lockdown duties for his mum) but is threatening to come back in next week, when he has cleared the backlog I will get him to knock up one for you.

 

Some other madness when the decks are clear.

That's not a bad Idea for a fuel tank either, got a few of those big gass bottles and one on its side should make a decent strong tank to carry some extra fuel
