Today I acquired...........

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

I think that pump is designed to screw into the top of a 200l steel barrel of oil so it doesn't have a base!

They came with both types of fitting. The drum one being common in Europe and the Americas. The tank fitiing flange screws onto the thread used to fit it to a drum.

The tank type shown is not a common one in Europe, but the do pop up. When they do and they are compelte. You will pay daft money for them.

Treated myself to a 7" and 12" Dewalt square nice for the angles but also work well with the trim saw as a guide.

May work out better. I have a plan...

The tank does not look too difficult to fabricate. Even the door looks relatively simple if built up from plate.

The difficult bit is the round-to-rectangle casting at the base of the pump. But if you welded a piece of 2" pipe to the top with a 2" BSP female socket on it, the pump would screw into that and be rigid. Then you could 'cast' the difficult piece from bodyfiller or fibreglass or make it out of cellulose-based organic material.

So got offered this for a project,
Looking forward to tearing into it after a couple of items go creating some room.

Thanks @JEZGUZ
