Good video Mike. All the edm machines I have worked on with a tank like yours, have a gutter under the opening door part. This gutter catches the drips when you open the door and directs the fluid back into the dirty tank.
Hi Mike , please allow me a suggestion that could save you a big headache In future . It’s to fit a couple of solenoids and a water in tank sensor that will make it impossible to open the tank while water is in it.. Another thing that I see , and this is because you made such a nice tank , is that if you ever are going to use another type of dielectric fluid , say oil , or kerosene your silicone based tank sealer will melt.. Congratulations ! It’s a great job!
I'm sure you already thought of this. A drip gutter below the door to somehow catch anything that drips or small leaks and direct it back to the dirty tank. Also on the door itself that slops to the gutter at its hinge line as it swing open. Either that or you will have to wipe it off every time you open the door.
I indeed thought of it and can easily add a drip gutter if needed. I wanted to test first if it is necessary. After draining the tank and fully opening the door, exactly two drops fell on my tabletop. As this is less then the number of drops that fall off the workpiece when you pick it out of the tank, I don't think Ill be adding a gutter. But if it gets worse, Ill definitely add one.
Hi Mike, if you rearrange the "ears" at 6:14 to attach to each side (rather than the base), you'd need a lot less welding and the "bounding box" for the part would be much smaller, meaning a cheaper production cost. IMO the folding operations shall become easier too.

As always Mike, very good job! 👍🏻👍🏻
Werner sent us this way to you. Wonderful work.
For some sheet metal companies, you send the folded 3D model and they will unfold it and apply their actual measured k-factor for you.
Nice video and Nice looking tank.
lovely video
awesome video
I fix w edm machines and I recommend putting the seal(gasket) on the tank side.
Great 👏😃
Parabéns ! Muito bom.
love it ....
Do we know the location for the latest CAD files?
soo this shit kost ???? во сколько она тебе обошлась по деньгам ??
