Here within the next month I will need a couple tanks built.

Should be basic rectangle shape with fitting bungs etc... I want then out of 3/16 Aluminum

I'm wanting to add a 50 gallon fuel tank under my enclosed and most likely a 75 gallon water under there as well.

Any recommendations on who can build these locally ?
I found a few places on line but shipping is a pain in the ass due to the size.

I still have to figure out my exact final dimensions but it looks like 6" x 32" x 66" will be just about right.
They will need a 2" inlet tube , and 3 seperate 1/2"npt bungs welded in as well.
Im planning on using 1.5" strap to hang them and support the weight but I will want 4 or 6 flat welded tabs on each tank for mounting as well.

I need 2 of them and possibly 3. (One of my buddies is thinking about adding one to his enclosed as well.)
3/16" Aluminum.

If any of the fab guys on here think this is something they want to tackle shoot me a PM so we can discuss $$ and timeframe.
I sold my enclosed so Im ready to go finally...
This new trailer project is getting expensive fast...lol

Well crap.....

I made one tank out of cardboard today so I could figure out the mounting and plumbing etc....
My original plan isn't going to work worth a damn....lol

Looks like Im gonna have to go back to plan B. One 50gal tank on the tongue of the trailer just for fuel and Ill have to just grab a few 15gal jugs for the trips where Im likely to need more water. Ill just store them in the trailer for those few trips a year....

I still need someone to build it ...

Approx 36" wide x 8" deep x 42" tall. Filler neck on the top and a couple NPT bungs on the bottom.
I want the sides angled to match my trailer tongue and want it built out of 3/16 or 1/4 diamond plate.

I could probably do it for you, I'm not super busy at the moment. I'll cad design the thing to aid in quality, and TIG weld it.
Since I'm not really running a shop and just doing it as sidework my rates are lower and I'm a little OCD about design, quality, and appearance.
I'm down In Orem though, but work in Salt Lake.
I've got some pics of gas tanks and various aluminum stuff on my website www.UtahWeld.com
