Stainless steel Fuel Tanks

Can anyone recommend where to get a new stainless steel 280L fuel tank made up for a Ribeye 785s?

Ribeye can supply at a reasonable rate, but delivery is 6-12 weeks, would rather get it sorted sooner.

Jay Wolfe Metal Works aka Shop 4 Tanks. Great service. I understand they make the tanks for Rib Eye anyway. They have a cancelled order tank available right now. I was very pleased with their service when they made me a custom 2mm 316 stainless tank for the ribcraft.

Thanks I have contacted them for the quote.

Ribeye were going to source the tank from South Africa, with a 6-12 week lead time hence trying to find somewhere in the UK who can make it sooner.
