Dismantling a double hull stainless tank

Cork is very compressible, so I would expect some type of supporting structure on the bottom of the inside. I would guess it is welded feet on the bottom of the inner tank.

Should still be a slip fit if you can cut and end completely off

Might be a spider or arms and not attached to either. Might be disks or any form depending on the weight of the center tank... I'd take an end off and see what you find.

Mart> >> I have this tank, which I craned today:

I _really_ want to see the video of that.

Wouldn't a bit of det cord do the trick? HE-tech wine bottle neck removal simulation. Pop the end and drag out the inner tank.

My brother used to be a scrapper. He told me that the stainless steel milk tanks made by the "ZERO Corporation" were clearly labeled with their net scrap value.... Very similar construction. SS liner, and insulation, with out shell.

Wish it were available to play with and learn about. ;)

If you're talking about linear shaped charges , they are fun . Basically a tube full of explosive with one side dented in to form a vee shape , and they work better if you stand them off the surface to be cut a little . It's been over 30 years since I worked at Thiokol , but a lot of that kind of thing just sticks with you - like the time we "disassembled" a shed with an

8 lb block of C4 Poseidon propellant . There were a few pieces bigger than a toothpick ...

Yes and no. Yes, they'd be fun, too, but I was talking about shearing an end off a tank to pull out the inner tank. Y'know, can opener?

Sounds like you were a blast to be around, Terry.

P.S: Were you a _real_ rocket scientist? ;)
