Any Edges


Has anyone thought about using an abandoned gasoline truck (tank only)? I've seen dome houses with a dozen windows that will never stand up to the high winds that we know are coming. It's obvious these people didn't build them with disaster in mind, probably just liked the style and energy efficiency. What a waste.

First, anything with that much metal is never abandoned; it is sold for the price of junk metal. Second, if you could get such, if it only had carried gasoline it could probably be cleaned sufficiently to be safe. But, there would have to be quite a bit wrong with it to not be repaired. That's why I chose a new, never used propane tank. No thin rusted places and no residue.
