Black tank welding?
Need to reshape my black tank and that will require plastic welding.
Anybody has any experience with such job?
What tools are needed?

- I replaced a black tank in a rebuild I did years ago, rather than repair the old one.
I went to my local RV parts store armed with the measurements I needed, and the hole locations.
They had a catalogue of generic tanks, with all the specs on them.
I picked the one I wanted, told them where to put the holes, and ordered it.
It fit perfectly. - Some Plasti-Mend and some sheet ABS should work.
I assume the tank is ABS - Sounds like he needs to reshape his tank, not a new tank.
Yes there people who can do plastic welding. jimh425 wrote:

Repairing seems like a (c)rap shoot. Replacing with new is a good idea ;) .- That seems like a really smelly job with a smelly result if the fix fails. Have you thought about just buying another tank?
