Hi all.

Thanks much for opines on my LP tank.

Prior to posting, I noticed my tank had a tiny "hole" in long weld
near one end. In hindsight, it looked "proud". (bead high) I was
curious and had some time to kill today so.....

Took it too:   http://tinyurl.com/n4935m

technician noticed difference in weld right away. Also commented that
if ID tag missing/rusted out, he wouldn't use the tank. Not to light
up a debate, just one techs opinion.

Since tech and I speculated that tank may have been repaired, IMO, one
would be wise to inspect the welds if inspecting their tank. Take note
of shot showing end. Looks like someone got a little eager with the
angle grinder!
