Steve, I am in the process of designing wing tanks for my KR2 out of 4" aluminum pipe 6' 1/2" long. Each tank with hold 4.1 gallons, and will mount forward of the main spar. I'm still in the design inception stage, but I'd be interested in seeing what you have designed.

They are used for gas welding. I know a guy that uses these rods to repair boat propellers and it is very strong stuff. I have used these around the house for small things for several years and would really be interested in building some wing tanks like this because I am pretty good at gas welding. Any thoughts or opinions from anyone out there would be greatly appreciated.
