Another approach would be for someone with a lathe (wood or metal) to turn
the buck. I have a lathe, but I also have a good tank, so I'm not terribly
motivated to make the buck. However, if enough people need one, I could
probably make a buck for half the tank (the tank has two halves soldered
together).
