We had this conversation last September.  Allen G. Wiesner mentioned that
source of thin-wall aluminum irrigation pipe would make a dandy tank (it
comes in 2-12" diameters), and I think Larry Flesner came up with inserting
anti-sloshing baffles made of aluminum discs skewered through a small center
tube.  That's probably what I'll do when I add fuel to my wings.

There are more details in the KRnet search engine, found at
