You keep dumping gas on the ground like that, you'll be money ahead getting a new tank, after a few times of that!

Tanks are pretty cheap in reality.
Plus i need to patch it until i get one, as its my only set of wheels. I cant afford it down.

Temporary and easy. I'm assuming you have a 2 port pump, Put an air bubble,old compressor tank etc. In the bed. Put a fitting where the drain was,drill 1 hole in the bed run a hose down to the fuel line. Use the air bubble as a temporary gas tank. This is assuming you dint drive far daily,other wise you'll need a compressor tank. A propane tank would work also with more work. I've even used an old R12 tank in the past. Cheaper and less risky than dumping fuel on the ground every night.

Went to an estate sale and got a Delta overarm router/shaper and another HD shaper. The router I don't believe has ever been used, its still bolted on the original shipping skid.

The router was what I was really after, I'll need to evaluate the shaper and see what I want to do with it, as I already have one.

Saw this sitting on a garbage can while driving home. I don’t need it but at that price I couldn’t let it go. Other than the lid being a little sun faded it’s in good shape. Measures 20.5”x 12”h x 9”d. I’ll put it on Craigslist for $30 and see if I get any nibbles.
