I used to build hydralic tanks... It'll get balloon tested for an
hour before I trust it.
I'm thinking I'm going to have to braze the holes up :o( That's a
hassle cause I'm a cheap bastard and use oxy/propane to cut with, you
have to use oxy/acetylene to weld/braze.

I've sealed a tank before and it worked fine but like Graham it

next to his gas water heater. Burned his house down too. I'd test
the hell out of it in a well ventilated area before trusting it.
