When the metal sheet is cut into the shapes needed, many parts are bent in order to make the basic shell and or the ends and baffles utilized for the fuel tank.

Lots of baffles in aircraft and racecars contain "lightening" holes. These flanged holes have two purposes. They reduce the weight of the tank while adding weight to the baffles. Openings are added toward the ends of construction for the filler neck, the fluid-level sending unit, the drain and the fuel pickup. At times these holes are added when the fabrication method is complete, other times they are created on the flat shell.

The baffle and the ends are next riveted in position. Frequently, the rivet heads are soldered or brazed in order to avoid tank leakage. Ends could then be hemmed in and flanged and soldered, or sealed, or brazed with an epoxy type of sealant, or the ends can likewise be flanged and next welded. After the brazing, welding and soldering has been done, the fuel tank is tested for leaks.
