Hi all
Just wanted to let you know I will be posting some photos shortly of the progress of the Manta tanks, tooling is coming along. We are still aiming for tanks for March but obviously there may be problems along the way that could cause delays but hopefully not. I will keep you up to date and post photos of our progress. The first tank will always take a bit more time then the others will follow a lot quicker.
Thanks for your support - obviously as and when you will all be contacted individually for your specific requirements regarding caps/polishing etc when we get to that stage.

If you have any questions you are welcome to pm us

best wishes
Michelle

Been building it for the last 6 years. All polished aluminium. :)
I have a fetish for bare alluminium and rivets....

Anyway, back to tanks. I'd love an aluminium one for my X1. :sad1:

Agree may invest in a small tank when produced.
