I was thinking I could make myself one out of aluminum.....what would be wrong with aluminum?....A plastic repair place said he could fix my tank no problem...he plastic welds...I re-install, it stars to leak again...I take it back he fixes...no charge.....3 times now....claims he has fixed these tanks for years...I have never used the coach...it sits in my shop with rv plumbing fluid in it and it starts to leak in a few weeks where he fixed. I do know that it is possible to tighten the bands to tight and stress the tank....brian 77 ele 455
