Re: core end tank material
i've used .063 6061 for the past 4-5 years with success. it rolls and bends without any issues. but 5052 is recommended for bending.

You can also anneal your 6061 before bending it to remove the T6 temper which is why it sucks to bend.
When you weld it together the T6 temper goes away at the joints anyway.
