Openings are added toward the ends of construction for the drain, the fuel pickup, the filler neck and the fluid-level sending unit. Occasionally these holes are added when the fabrication process is complete, other times they are made on the flat shell.

Then, the ends and baffles could be riveted into position. The rivet heads are frequently brazed or soldered in order to stop tank leaks. Ends can then be hemmed in and flanged and sealed, or brazed, or soldered utilizing an epoxy kind of sealant, or the ends could also be flanged and afterward welded.
