@neauoire it will be far from a perfect fit but I do have the water tank from under the v-berth of my Albin that you are welcome to.

@avi Thanks, I appreciate it. But part of the fun in this project is to learn how to make it ourselves. I was wondering, can you cnc cut thin sheets of aluminum?

@neauoire @avi yes you absolutely can. Either router with some form of hold down (can be as simple as masking tape and super glue or vacuum or a spring loaded roller on the spindle, and down cutting bits help avoid pulling it up), or a strong enough laser. Both available as a service or diy.

Can also print a life size template onto paper, glue it on, and have at it with snips or a grinder with the right type of disk if the shape is simple enough.

@neauoire @avi I missed the "you" part in afraid it's late here haha but for any cnc cutter there exists a thickness of alu sheet or plate it'll cut. A stock 3018 can do 3mm accurately enough if you're patient (and if the tiny footprint is enough)

@maxc @avi Oh haha, np. I would have been only half surprised if you did know each other.

@avi @neauoire just by curiosity, how many liters?

@rek @neauoire pretty sure it’s 70L.

My small CNC probably wouldn’t be too useful for tank parts. Need to finish my giant one. Which actually: I would *love* to hire you two to help me do that this winter 😛

@avi @rek We'd LOVE to help, tell us when and where, and we'll be there :) It wouldn't be for the tank that we'd use the large CNC, but for cutting alum sheets and make shutters for the windows.

@neauoire @rek tentatively, what if we booked off Dec 3-9? You could stay at the retreat space.

@avi @rek It's a date. We'll be there :) We can confirm as the date gets closer but unless something changes, you can count on us.
