Once the metal sheet is cut into the shapes required, numerous parts are bent so as to make the basic shell and or the baffles and ends for the fuel tank.

Many baffles in aircraft and racecars have "lightening" holes. These flanged holes have two purposes. They add strength to the baffles while reducing the weight of the tank. Openings are added toward the ends of construction for the drain, the fuel pickup, the filler neck and the fluid-level sending unit. Every now and then these holes are added once the fabrication process is done, other times they are created on the flat shell.

Ends can next be hemmed in and flanged and brazed, or soldered, or sealed with an epoxy kind of sealant, or the ends can likewise be flanged and after that welded. After the soldering, brazing and welding has been done, the fuel tank is checked for leaks.
