Timslocum,
Just for fun check out this article, it's a pretty good one. Tells you step by step how to make 1/35th scale buckets using real metal. Double all of the dimensions and they should work perfectly for 1/16th tanks. Check it out and see how difficult they are to make. Sure beats a $26.00 Shumo bucket ($19.00 plus $7.00 shipping)
