Got the RF plate in and the tracks for food racks. I have a neighbor with a brake that can do 1/4" up to 10ft. We put a 174 degree bend length wise on the plate. We could not do a cross break for center drain because the tank was about 3/8" out of round from one end to the other so I cut the plate obtuse and split it in half to fit. Worked out level from one end to the other and had a heavy 1/8"per foot slope in all 4 directions for a center drain. Still have to plumb it but it was a good fit. I used a 1977 oxy acetylene track torch I picked up for $75 at an auction. Smith 0/ cutting tip. Not a plasma cutter but if you get your heat and speed right it does a nice job with no warping. It cuts up to 3" thick and they don't mak'em like that any more. maybe it's starting to look like a smoker?
finally got some time to do a little work here are some photos

That is some nice craftmanship! Everything looks clean and well fitted together. You'll be the talk of the town come Spring.
