Looks real symetrical, and I think that's the hardest part. Even though you only see one side at a time, getting them to match has to be a PITA.

Yeah it took a while when pounding out the dents. I just went nice and slow took about 3 hours to pound them out.
It helped to use a sharpie and mark the beginning of the bends and any low/high spots so i could go back over and focus on that one area.
So excited to sand and prime today, it's already 70 outside and clear skys.

Got it all sanded down, two coats of primer, it looks like i have a little bit of sanding left to do and a couple more coats of primer. tanks has nice (nondrastic) knee dents, they almost look natural. very pleased with the outcome so far.

My painting setup, plywood to cover the wall a string from the top deck and a string to a big brick on the ground with a stabilizing wood bar behind the tank...
