Reply:Great job! Looks good, but I wouldn't leave it to close to the road, you might find a few bullet holes in it.Bow season opens up this weekend along with squirrel and rabbits. The schools are closed tomorrow because just about everyone will be heading to the camp. This has been a tradition going on for years.

Reply:At first I thought you were doing one of those wire frame Christmas decorations on steroids. Looks good. The bow hunters might get a bit cranky after they try and put one of their broadheads into that tank..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size.

Reply:The submarine would be pretty cool ...... but ya gotta paint it yellow...   Seriously, though, if you do a sub, put an oversized periscope on it, and then make a big pair of eyeballs looking out of the scope.  If you got real creative, put a slow-motion motor on it so the periscope actually turned.  Then just half-submerge in the pond for an interesting decoration.
Reply:The place I dive at had a small "sub" that some one built for people to look at underwater. It looked sort of like ALVIN, or MIR, those mini research subs. I wished I had gotten picts before they moved it. It was built from a large propane tank. I'd don't have any idea if they used a new or used one to build it.I've always wanted to see a sea serpent myself. With a bit of thought you could have it rise from the depths and spray water/mist from the nose. I figured an air compressor tank discharged all at once would do the trick. Use a sort of siphon/venturi like the cheap sandblasters to create the spray..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear.

Reply:If I were to do the sub project from a used tank, what precautions should be taken or prep work done to make the tank safe before welding? Would it be enough to simply make sure tank was empty?
Reply:If all the mods were just add ons to the outside, you could just fill the tank 100% with water. If you wanted to cut and mod the tank, to do it right gets more complicated.Usually they check the interior for O2 content and flamable gasses with a meter and then purge with a gas like nitrogen, CO2 etc, to diplace the O2 and any flamable gasses..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size.
